WHY IT MATTERS During a child’s first three years of life, their brains are being wired for future success. Brain development is more rapid during this period than at any other, with more than 700 neural connections created each second. Children are born with an innate love of learning and learn everything from smiling, walking and speaking, to making choices, exploring and developing relationships.
