Time does pass in the books (I mean just going from Winterfell to King's Landing is over a month travel), but the issue is all characters in the show were "aged up" about 3-4 years. This was done because having 14-15 year olds having sex is something even HBO was not comfortable with showing. Have to keep in mind in medieval time people grew up much faster and once you could bare children it was expected you would.
So, for Bran instead of being a boy of 7 at the start he is around 10-11 or age of puberty when changes are most dramatic in appearance. I do not blame the show, real life logistics make it impossible to film within the exact confines of a stories reality, especially with children.
