Executive Function Skills help us with other essential

skills: sequencing and prioritising tasks, being

organised, using time well and getting on with

others.

Just like all other skills, the neural circuits for Executive

Function Skills become stronger through experience and

lots of practice from the moment we are born.

This means that the neural circuitry of children who

have not had such regular experiences will be weaker;

their skills in these areas will be weaker too.
