In childhood, the human brain can obtain 90% of its
adult size by the age of 3. This age includes the

they are able to capture the activities quickly in the
development period which has been influenced by
various factors such as environment and
biopsychosocial activities.
Social Factor : Similarly, the social factor
includes the connection and emotional
attachment between each other socially
which makes them to increase their social
acts such as nature, behaviour and along

which can obtain direct and indirect
challenges of child health (Richards,
Bacon-Shone, and Rao, 2018). The social
factor includes the demographic,
composition, parenting, and parents
substance abuse which makes an impact of
the child (Sigelman, and Rider, 2021).
These social functions affect the
development of the child in positive and
negative both way as well. Child learns and
receive each activity from the parents or
environmental factors accordingly.
Psychological Factor : Sometimes, during the child
development they feel irritated and blessed by
looking at the atmosphere environment which

(Tingen, Mazloomdoost and Halvorson, 2018).
Parents are more responsible for the any activity
which is adopted by the child in its development.
Promoting the healthy active living is the best source
to keep the child healthier physically and mentally.
Children are very fast learner and adopt the things
easily, and they do not have an understanding good
and bad which influences them to obtain the both
kind of activities (Herrero, Torres and Rodríguez,
2018). Children mostly affected by the
environmental influences which makes them to feel
stresses and tensed which affects their mental health.
While improving the physical activities can make
them to feel positive and stress less from which they
are able to grow and develop the area of
improvement.
Biological factor : This term includes the
various function in common such as
biologically, physiological and social factors
which play an important role in the
development (McConnachie, Ayed and et.al.,
2020). Looking at biological factor then it
involves the parenting nature in the
development of the child. For example, a
genetic disease or a habit which are taken by
their parents in an order which influenced the
child and its development directly. This
genetic habits impact the health of a child
mostly and make them to suffer from genetic
disease over all life.
