What Participants Are Saying
I loved what FocusedKids teaches me to apply in my classroom. The kids are more aware of their feelings and their actions. They are a more focused and happy group. THANK YOU FocusedKids team!
FocusedKids has been a great tool for me. It helped me a lot with a student in my classroom that has been through an emotional struggle.
Thank you so much for every single session. I have been doing them for 3 years and I always learn a ton. This year I put into practice more grounding exercises and they help my students to stay focused!
