We have been working with your children since October to learn strategies for using our brain to act more mindfully. Ask your children about what the following parts of the brain do:
Prefrontal cortex (the "wise leader" of your brain)
Hippocampus (stores memories)
Amygdala (the security guard of your brain...but watch out, emotions can get out of control when your amygdala takes charge)
Watch the video below with your kids to review these concepts! Let your kids tell you why it is so important to PRACTICE keeping our brains CALM and STRONG!
