The goal of the Superflex curriculum is to provide a fun, motivating way to improve a child’s social and behavioral flexibility and to ultimately develop better self-monitoring and self-feedback loops for their social behavior. The concept is based on the ideas that we all have a superhero, Superflex, in our brains, and he is constantly battling the Unthinkables (a variety of unexpected behaviors) such as: the Un-Wonderer, Space Invader, and Brain Eater, etc., who may come and try to take over our brains. Children can work on identifying what members are on their Team of Unthinkables and learn Superflexible Strategies to defeat their Unthinkables when they challenge Superflex.

The Unthinkables:

Rock Brain

Worry Wall

Space Invader

Glassman

Brain Eater

WasFunnyOnce

One-Sided Sid

D.O.F.

Body Snatcher

Energy Hare-y

Un-Wonderer
