Cognitive Development

Cognitive Development is how people learn to think, reason, and understand the world around them. It’s about growing skills like problem-solving, memory, and decision-making as we age. For example, a baby learning to recognize shapes or a teenager solving a math problem are both parts of cognitive development. In short, it’s about how our brains grow and learn.
