ELC 4717: Brain Breaks for Young Children – Supporting Good Health and Learning
2023-11-29 - 2023-12-15
Brain breaks are a great classroom management tool to use regularly. Brain breaks are short, 1 to 2 minutes, activities that can give young children a break from classroom activities. Brain breaks give young children a chance to regroup, relax, stretch, and allow the teacher to pull all the children together. Brain breaks can even happen in the middle of circle time.

Self-Paced – open 24/7
10 In-Service Hours or 1 CEU
Target Audience: Toddler, Pre-K 3, Pre-K 4, and VPK Teachers
