Understanding Brain Development In Children

By Tanisha Berg


The study of science includes a focus on the manner in which the physical formation, mental processes, and reactions to environmental stimuli influence the formation of neurons and connections through life. With a closer look at brain development in children, research has indicated that stimulation methods involving an educational approach have the greatest impact on the growth of genetics and similar factors. It is important to understand that the development of human brains will lay the foundation for future processes.

Newborns will possess billions of neurons that continue to develop over a period of time and in response to environmental events and stimulation. All parents are encouraged to introduce structured methods of learning and stimuli that will aid in forming the necessary auditory, visual, and motor skills. These particular techniques are most effective in tending to the future requirements that young ones will experience with an increase in age.

For the encouragement of developmental outcomes in young children, it is necessary to take the time to create learning methods that are exciting and will serve to improve all the connections between the different neurons and synapses. The aim is to create structured and efficient actions that can enhance the connections and processes that occur for individuals who are able to grasp information more efficiently and smoothly. The different autonomic methods from heart rate to breathing and sleeping are guided.

Caregivers should understand that children between the ages of 0 to 3 will develop synapses at a rapid rate. These connections form in relation to the experiences that young ones go through and therefore it is important that safe and structured forms of stimulation are provided for such developing minds. It is when kids reach adolescence that a great number of synapses are reduced and settles around the number that will be possessed throughout adulthood.

The brain continues to adapt and adjust throughout life as it assists in the ability for individuals to adapt and retain new information. Due to the fact that most neuron formation occurs in childhood, it requires maximum support while other higher order thinking only occurs with an increase in age as the myelin sheath around the brain forms. It is this sheath that is considered most responsible for the ability to control thoughts, feelings, and overall sensory functions.

It is at age 3 that the brains of babies will have achieved its adult size. It is imperative that kids are provided the necessary educational stimulation that will aid in enhancing the formation of sensory neurons for stronger connections and maximum growth as they become older. Due to the fact that development is largely dependent on stimulation, it is important for all young ones to be provided the right levels of education and support.

The environment also has a great deal of impact on the growth process. Plasticity is the phenomenon that describes the ability for brains to adjust in response to an external stimulation. Introductions to new circumstances will aid in improving the responses of young ones to change. Different aspects of memory will form with an increase in age.

Once should consider the importance of educational measures in tending to and supporting optimum operation. When methods of learning are introduced at a younger stage involving overall auditory and visual stimulation, it facilitates future mental and physical function. Investing in such processes will aid in facilitating the overall health of young ones.
