By birth, almost all of the neurons that we possess have already been made. But what’s interesting is that a newborn’s brain is just over a quarter of an adult’s brain in size. Within just one more year, the brain grows to 80% of its final size, and within the first five years, it’s a full 90% of the final size. What’s taking all that space? It’s not like neurons are just getting chubby!
All of our memories and skills are represented by a complex maze of connections. These connections are being constantly wired, cut and rewired. And no other time in life does the brain go through as much change as in the first five years. It’s this wiring that takes up most of the space. To be able to handle this rate of change—let alone nurture it—is a huge challenge.
