      One way is through MRI scanning where you ask parents to bring their children in at different ages so that the brain can be imaged using the MRI scanner and this shows us the brain! This link walks you through the use of an MRI scanner and shows you the kind of pictures we get to look at of the brain https://bigpictureeducation.com/brain-imaging-images
