When you grow, the brain activity becomes more obvious.

We know for sure because the brain is responsible for those functions. You seem to be suggesting that brain activity can exist outside of a brain, which is as silly as saying that skin cells on your arm are just as capable of tasting as your tongue is.
Also, nice work using science to justify your opinion before going out and casting doubt on science
