Introduction The brain develops at an astonishing rate starting from conception. In the first ten years of a child’s life‚ their brain will have made billions of connections. By the time the individual grows older‚ the brain will continue to grow and make more connections. The main contributions to a developing brain are biological genes‚ the enviornment‚ and different critical periods. In this paper‚ the following will be elaborated on: (a) fetal brain development‚ (b) brain development in children
