The pre-frontal cortex is one of the last areas of the brain to mature. It's the area responsible for planning, prioritizing, and decision-making. Studies show that brain development occurs up until the age of 25. Reading, exercising, and spending time with family are all ways to aid in the healthy development of your brain. #buildingbrightbrains
