Kids will learn how to use science-backed strategies to grow stronger thinking skills, build confidence, and stay on track—no matter how their brain is wired. 🧩 What Are Executive Functioning Skills? They’re like the boss of your brain! These are the tools that help you: Start tasks (even the boring ones) Stay focused (even with distractions) Organize your thoughts (and your stuff) Keep calm when things are tough Plan ahead and manage your time Remember what you need to do Handle changes and surprises And guess what? These skills don’t come fully built—you grow them like muscles. And this class is like a brain gym! 👩🏫 Why This Class Works 👂Kid-Friendly, Brain-Based, and Totally Relatable We explain big science in fun, understandable ways so kids get what’s going on in their heads—and how to work with it. 🌈 Designed for Neurodiverse Learners Whether your child is ADHD, autistic, gifted, dyslexic, 2e, or just still growing their executive skills, we use flexible, affirming strategies that work for every kind of thinker. 🎮 Interactive + Flexible Classes are designed to be active, hands-on and inclusive. 🧪 Led by an Expert in Neurodiverse Brains This class has been painstakingly built by a Neuroscientist and SPED specialist in 2e, ADHD, autism, and giftedness, with 20+ years of experience translating neuroscience into real strategies that work for kids (who also happens to be 2e as well). Perfect For: Kids who need help staying focused, organized, or calm Kids who get easily overwhelmed by changes or frustration Curious kids who want to learn more about how their brain works Any learner who could use more tools to thrive and feel confident
