Excellent product. Kids love all the little brains with emoji like faces. The cards that describe the brains are well done and give kids the vocabulary to identify and express what type of brain they have and understand that sometimes they have aspects of other brains. I really like the trauma brain as it gives a very nice way to talk to children about trauma. I definitely recommend this to anyone working with children for sure, but even adults could gain some valuable insight into how they think and perceive the world around them.

I love the brain mates because I teach students in the elementary setting about their brains. the brain mates allows the children to identify what brain they are in and how to use strategies to get back to their calm brain. this allows the students to retain this important information and learn what brain type they are in.
