Happy Friday Sunrise Family!😁
Did you know babies are born with way more neurons than they’ll actually keep? During the first few years of life, the brain goes through massive “synaptic pruning,” trimming unused connections to make neural networks more efficient.
By age 2–3, a child’s brain has about twice as many synaptic connections as an adult brain — making early childhood one of the most neurologically dynamic times of life!
It’s like the brain’s own version of spring cleaning… even in the middle of winter ❄️🧹
