It is called synaptogenesis.
The area of the brain that is affected by cerebral palsy is the cerebrum, it involves connections between the cortex and the cerebelum. This disorder usually starts at an early age or at the time of birth.
It starts to develop in utero and completes most of its development by the mid twenties, between 21 to 25.

white matter is the area of the brain that contains neurons having what is called a myelin sheath. This sheath is a fatty coating between neuronal connections that makes communication between them much faster and more efficient. This is generally associated with well learned or heavily used connections. For example, your mother's name will certainly have this myelin sheath whereas that person you just met five minutes ago will take continued reinforcement to remember. grey matter is the brain's remaining area for potential growth and connections. white and grey areas are not separate entities that communicate per se. think of grey matter as undeveloped rural land with few or no roads, and white matter as a city with many venues of communication and a high density of information. grey matter is the brain's potential. thus the saying "use your grey matter".
Brain fissures are convolutions in the structure of the brain that form valleys between folds. The valleys are called fissures or sulci (plural of sulcus), and lie between the raised folds called gyri (singular gyrus).Many brain features are identified with fissures, including Broca's fissure, the Fissure of Sylvius, the central (Rolando's) fissure, and the hippocampal fissure.
kids have 'fluid intelligence' - since their brain connections between neurons (brain cells) are just developing, new information is retained much better than in adults, where much less brain development occurs
Transient exuberance is a temporary increase in the number of synaptic connections between neurons in the brain, often observed during early brain development. This phenomenon is crucial for the formation of neural circuits and learning.
"synapses"
complexity
Research on brain development suggests that repeated learning experiences can help strengthen synaptic connections in the brain, leading to enhanced memory retention and skill development. This process, known as neuroplasticity, allows the brain to adapt and reorganize itself in response to learning, ultimately improving overall cognitive function and abilities.
Some lower invertebrates have what is called a ganglia, which is basically a poorly developed brain, but many lower invertebrates have no brain, and just connections of nerves throughout the body, which is called a nerve net.
The development of a big brain enabled humans to have more brain cells and discover things. it also created more connections to the body so hand-eye coordination developed to the aid of humans.
Because the connections in the brain are what makes your brain work, without connections there's nothing to process or indicate, the process of learning is severely affected by these connections, and if it weren't for them, well, my name wouldn't be Mr. Science 8=D~>-|o

Language development and cognitive development are closely linked. Acquisition of language relies on cognitive abilities such as memory, attention, and problem-solving skills. As language skills improve, so does cognitive development as it enhances reasoning, mental flexibility, and understanding of abstract concepts. In turn, cognitive development also supports language development by providing the necessary cognitive skills for processing and producing language.
Synapses are connections between neurons through which "information" flows from one neuron to another.
A young brain is still in development. While an adult's brain has matured and, depending on age, could actually be in decline due to loss of brain cells.
