There is a connection formed between neurones (brain cells) with every interaction we do with them. They pruning out (removing excess information) and takes in repeated information means if you tell baby to say Mom or Dad or a song, they will learn.

The connections are like a maze of inter-connected paths. The more frequently used paths become well established in brain.

If you remember your childhood you must have done your frequent and interesting things you love to do.
