An Introduction to Brain Breaks​
Brain Breaks are short, energizing bursts of activity that boost blood flow, send oxygen to the brain, and help kids better retain information. Research has shown that Brain Breaks increase students' on-task behavior AND the amount of physical activity they get every day.
