Human thinking, learning, and movement all rely on brain command. Parents may also have doubts about why some babies are smart while others appear clumsy during their growth process. This must be due to differences in their brains. So, what exactly does a baby's brain look like?
After birth, the volume of brain cells and many parts of the body will grow simultaneously, and the synapses connected to the baby's nerve cells will gradually form. The number of synaptic tissues will reach its peak at three months after birth.
When the baby reaches 6 months of growth and development, the DNA content will stop increasing and continue to increase until 12 months when the oligodendrocytes in the brain tissue are already very abundant, reaching about 70% of the adult content. And in the later stages of early childhood development, it will gradually increase until it approaches 100% of adult development, at which point the baby's brain tissue development is almost complete.
Besides innate genetic factors, the postnatal learning process is also very important in determining whether a baby is intelligent or not. Because constantly stimulating the brain's neural tissue through learning not only enhances memory and thinking, but also makes the brain tissue more active and beneficial for a virtuous cycle, parents should also pay great attention to their children's education, cultivate good study habits and create a good learning atmosphere, which is a good way to improve their babies' intelligence.
