Teamwork is so much more than “playing nice.”
At KidStrong we use team-based challenges to develop critical skills like problem solving, communication and empathy. Kids who learn to work together are learning how to live a happy, socially connected life. 🙌 🙌
Here’s what research shows teamwork helps develop in kids:
🧠 Executive function: Competitions like the shuttle run team obstacle courses require attention, planning and problem-solving—all of which are tied to academic success, too.*
🗣 Communication: Kids practice taking turns, talking through ideas and listening, which can boost interpersonal confidence.**
🤝 Emotional regulation & empathy: Teamwork isn’t always easy. But managing frustration, reading social cues and supporting others are how kids learn emotional resilience.***
At KidStrong we’re making developmental skills training FUN!
Join us in celebrating this milestone with all our KidStrong kids—the leaders, listeners and problem-solvers of tomorrow! 🎉 🥳
