Brain Builders
A game about understanding your brain, for ages 5 to 10.
Codes come from the Center for Optimal Brain Integration. A school or trainer without one can contact us.
For grown-ups
Brain Builders turns the ideas in Understanding My Brain: Becoming Human(E)! into something children play. Four animal friends each stand for a part of the brain with a job, and every adventure practises one step of a routine a child can use when a feeling gets big: stop, breathe, notice the feeling and its size, listen to the body, choose a tool, and put things right.
In a classroom
Play an adventure on the board and breathe along together. Each one ends with a question to talk about as a class.
No wrong feelings
There are no scores, timers or losing. Every line is spoken and captioned, and it can be played by touch, mouse or keyboard.
Private by design
No accounts and no names. Progress is kept in this browser only and nothing a child does is sent anywhere.
Brain Builders opens with an access code. Schools and trainers can contact us for one.
