- You have the highest neuron count at 28 weeks (about 7 months). That’s when your neural network is at its peak.

3 to 6 years old

- The brain’s neural network is sprouting most rapidly in the frontal lobes
- Mostly in frontal cortex

assimilation- involves incorporating new experiences into our current understanding (schema) 

accommodation- process of adjusting a schema and modifying it 

sensorimotor- babies take in the world through looking, heading, touching, mouthing, and grasping 

object permanence- objects that are out of sight are out of mind
