Description

All young children are active and easily distracted — that is normal. Some find it much harder than others to wait, follow instructions, stay with a task or use a pencil and scissors. These children are not “naughty”: they need structure, movement and practice to build skills that grow more slowly for them.

This course gives you visual routines, attention games, calming strategies and fun hand-strength activities for home and the classroom.

This course supports learning; it does not diagnose. If a difficulty continues despite good teaching and practice, talk to the school and a qualified specialist (educational psychologist, speech and language therapist, occupational therapist or doctor). Free for every family and school.

Prerequisites: None — an adult (parent, teacher or carer) learns and practises with the child.
