Kids, parents, teachers, and community leaders will benefit from this course.
This course provides easy-to-learn brain basics that will promote healthy development and help set kids up for a happier, more successful life.
Some of the simplest yet most powerful things you can teach your children are to eat nutritious foods, get plenty of sleep, and engage in physical exercise.
Giving children choices helps them learn to make good decisions. For example, would you like carrots or broccoli with dinner? Would you like to have grapes or watermelon with your lunch? Would you like to ride your bicycle or run to the park today? Would you like to read one or two stories before bedtime?
Choices also lessen the resistance from kids as they feel a sense of control—a huge bonus!
Children learn by example, so being a good role model is the best way for kids to learn about making brain-healthy decisions. Articulating your decision-making process out loud can be helpful. For example, you might say, “I’m craving some chocolate, but I bet my brain would appreciate some pineapple instead, and that will satisfy my sweet tooth as well.”
The individual course is $479
