EP:33 Observing your child is key to determine what extracurriculars are best for them. As parents we have to know how our child's brain ticks.

Finding out what activities our children enjoy would help us figure out how to help them regulate their brains on a daily basis.

Extracurricular activities are effective tools in regulating your childs’s nervous system that will last a lifetime.  

Swimming. Dancing. Ball games. Martial Arts.  Playing musical instruments .

Anything that has lots of movements  in it. Anything that they enjoy doing!

We don’t need them to win. We don't need to be too competitive.

We only need to show up and watch our children do things that are healthy for their brains and bodies!
