Focused Kids is practiced at each Child's Play Preschool
Research & Benefits From the current research in child development, we know that children need experiences that are repeated and intentional to develop a healthy brain. There are certain neuro-connections required for them to self-regulate. They must learn and practice certain behaviors to delay gratification, contain urges to react, focus their attention, and manage themselves in healthy, productive ways. Their brain is wired to learn these skills, but they must practice, many times, certain behaviors for success. FocusedKids™ provides a framework for this learning. FocusedKids™ Curriculum The FocusedKids™ curriculum begins with the brain lesson, using puppets to represent the brain parts. Teaching the essential brain concepts for self-control comes first. This is the foundational lesson. The succeeding units include mindful exercises for calming, focusing, and energizing, along with a lesson on feelings awareness. New lessons are being created all the time, and all lessons refer back to the basic brain concepts to reinforce the child's knowledge of the brain, and sense of responsibility and control. |
