Babies' Brain
It is well known that babies are using almost all of their brain and in contrast adults are using only small part of their brain. This means babies cannot concentrate on one thing, but adults can do so. I think that there is a reason that explains it.
You adults obviously know what you are sitting on is a chair, what you are wearing are clothes and what you are breathing is air. But it's not correct actually. There are just stuff made out of molecules in the world. We just made boundaries, named them and classified them "in our brain". To tell the truth there are no boundary in the world. When we do exercise water seep out of our skin, we sweat, and the water leave our skin and become a vapor. Similarly, we use a humidifier to moisturize our skin. The vapor comes from the humidifier floating around your room attaches to your skin and seep into you. This world is continuous. We are just making boundary and naming each of them to understand this continuous world. This classification has been helped us to do intellectual activities.
On the other hand, babies don't know such kind of classification. They are overwhelmed by all the signals they get from their sensors. They don't know classification, so they cannot concentrate on a part of their signals. They are concentrating on everything. This must be the reason of their amazing development. We adults are editing(please tell me more proper word) the information we get from the world by using brain. It is a good thing, but it also has a bad effect. The editing keeps us in a ordinary frame of understanding. To get an unconventional idea it might be good to be like a baby.

Thank you for your comment. Your story really confirms my notebook. Do you know that there are some people who don't distinguish two or more senses? They smell something when they listen to music for example. It is known that many of them has high IQ. This fact means there are some people who have an unusual perspective, so to speak genius. Your cousin might be one of them.

I also agree with this. Here is an interesting story. My cousin (he is 4 now), can not verbally speak properly. He cannot pronounce words properly. His parents took him to a child speech therapist and they said that there is nothing wrong with him. The reason he can not speak properly is because there is too much stimuli, too many things going on in his head, so when he tries to speak, he is overpowered by other information. He is speaking much better now though :).
