It helps a child to think further away, out of the box for example to adapt to new situations. divergent thinking is different to convergent thinking which only focus is finding a single solution while divergent thinking pushes the child or young person to use their imagination and flexibility to widwn their brain thinking orginally.(Runco & Acar,2019) Children are curious and love exploring so show high levels of divergent thinking. they love to explore new possibilities, but as the grow in age and learning is more structered they may decline due to rules in their problem solving or creativity. ( Ganda et al.,2017) To help prevent a child declining it is important to provide open ended play, play involving story telling and creative expressions. play involving role play drama imaginary play drawing can push a child to think in many directions.(Barbot et al.,2016) It also important for a child to feel safe and confident in their environment by feeling like this a child will express themselves for freely without any fear that they may do something wrong. they will take more risks.Parents and people in education can help a childs divergent thinking by asking questions which are open ended and also encouraging a child to be more curious and experimenting with solution. Divergent thinking is a skill and is extremely vital in supporting creativity and also innovation.

Brain Development during the early years of a childs life a childs brain grows quickly. it helps to build the foundation for quality of learning different emotions and also different types of behavior. while the brain is developing millions of connections forn, this helps a child to think about things like remembering and problem solving. talking playing exploring are all positive experiences that help strengthen the connections with the brain development. If a child or young person suffers with neglect or stress or a big lack of stimulation they will find it hard to learn later on in life. (Fox et al., 2017). Different experiences can cause changes to the brain due to its flexibilty. If a child or young person engagaes in a lot of reading playing and also plenty of exercise during their growth in life it will help the brain gain a strong path way. but if a child or young person has alot of negative experiences then this will lead to problems in learning and emotions.

Benefits of bilingualism and Multilingualism Learning and studying many languages comes with many open doors as you grow into adulthood.knowing different languages is called being bilingual or multilingual. it also helps the brain to function in many ways. many jobs love the fact that a young person or adult can speak many languages. it also helps with learning and connecting to different cultures. boosting the brain by being bilingual shows that aperson may have a sharper memory than others, they are better at solving problems and skills. a brain becomes more strengthened by speaking more than one language thus making it more efficient and adaptable reducing risks of dementia later in an adults life. studing more languages helps the brain engage in challenges and also keeping it more active. ( MARIAN 2023) (Grosjean 2021) Bringing people together knowing and learning different languages helps to interact and opens up socialisation with different cultures, also it helps to travel the world and see it from native peoples perspectives. it promotes inclusivity by being multilingualism.
