---Brain development facts.
It's back-to-school season. Parents mark
their youngster's height on the wall and
marvel at how much they've grown - but do
we actually know what's going on just below
the pencil line in that child's brain? .
Do you know that from birth to age 5, a
child's brain develops more and more
rapidly, than at any other time in life?
It is therefore pertinent to note that the
quality of a child's experiences in the first
few years of life - positive or negative, helps
shape their brain development/architecture
and has lasting impact on their health and
ability to learn and succeed in school and in
life generally. Most parents feel that
schooling starts from age 5 or the primary
years. WRONG. It starts from about 7
months in utero. Know this dear fam, when
the Early foundation is not grounded
(formally or informally) it affects what
Comes after.
