A baby’s brain builds itself by forming connections in response to the stimulation it receives even before birth. The fetus begins responding to sounds during month five in the womb.Even before your baby is born, he already has the 10,000 billion brain cells. After birth, the baby’s brain continues wiring itself in response to the child’s experiences of the world. The connecting links of these cells grow at a tremendous rate during the first few months of your baby’s life Learning is faster and effortless
This growth is partly stimulated by the activity of nerve pathways leading to the brain. The more stimuli your baby receives from his senses, the more connections are created among brain cells. At this early age, baby’s genes, together with his experience with the outside world, forms the temperament and personality that will determine how well he will learn as he grows.
