They’re all bright-eyed and bushy-tailed, and each of them wiggles like a bunny that contains the energy of five adults. Now, imagine trying to get this rowdy bunch to calm down and quietly practice their math skills . . .
Sounds challenging, right?
Remarkably, a school in Canberra, Australia found a technique that seems to work just like magic. Giralang Primary School introduced a program that taught children how to practice mindfulness. The results were amazing!
