The ADD & ADHD Wellbeing Game Pack – Helping to develop emotional and social wellbeing!

ADD & ADHD Wellbeing Games Pack

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder or ADHD, affects around 1 in 20 children in Australia. The symptoms of ADHD may include inattention, impulsivity and over-activity, ADHD is also more common in boys.

 

One of the main symptoms of ADHD is inattention which may present in children struggling with completing tasks or activities. Tasks that require prolonged concentration are particularly difficult for young people with ADHD. A sign of inattention can be forgetfulness, meaning that learning and retaining information can be tricky for those with ADHD.

 

Impulse control and self-awareness skills are important in the development of emotionally healthy kids. However, the symptoms of ADHD can be difficult to manage and affect the social and learning development of children.

 

Some important skills for young people with ADHD to learn are thinking before acting, recognising consequences of impulsive behaviour, not acting on impulses, using self-talk to help combat impulsive urges and taking responsibility for actions.

 

There are also strategies to reduce symptoms of ADHD without sacrificing a child’s natural playfulness and sense of wonder about the world, including:
