Knowing about different parts of the brain and their functions is important for children's health and development. Visual aids, such as diagrams and educational posters, enhance their ability to understand how their brains work. These tools also make it easier for teachers and other caring adults to support kids’ learning of their brains.
The Brain Regions and Body Functions poster provides a vibrant and straightforward overview of key brain areas and their roles. It highlights regions, such as the frontal lobe, parietal lobe, temporal lobe, and occipital lobe. It’s an excellent resource for young learners and is perfect for classrooms, therapy offices, or even as a thoughtful gift.
Incorporating this poster into a reflection routine (during therapy sessions, at school, or at home) can help young people connect their feelings and actions to specific brain functions. Pair the activity with tasks like drawing or discussions.
Therapists can use this poster alongside interactive activities, like brain-based mindfulness exercises, to help clients understand how their brain influences their feelings and actions.
