Halloween Tricks and Doodles Activity Book: Concentration and Attention Games for Children with ADHD and Other Executive Function Difficulties

This Halloween, surprise your child with concentration and attention games that challenge and strengthen their Executive Function Skills ! Executive Function skills are the attention-regulation skills that make it possible to sustain attention, keep goals and information in mind, refrain from responding immediately, resist distraction, tolerate frustration, consider the consequences of different behaviors, reflect on past experiences, and plan for the future. Neurodiverse children sometimes struggle with executive functions. Executive Function skills, however, are malleable; they can be influenced by positive experiences and can be strengthened with practice. This means that children with executive function difficulties can learn to concentrate and to resist distraction . Our Halloween doodling and activity book contains more than 30 exercises and activities . Every game and activity in our activity book has been developed to practice and strengthen executive function skills. The specific attention games included in our activity book—puzzles, word search, find objects, storytelling, mazes and more--help children develop and exercise their ability to concentrate and keep information in mind . Activities such as coloring shapes by number, image puzzles, finishing the picture, and more also help to stimulate visual association, fine motor skills, visual memory, and orientation . Parents of children with ADHD and other executive function difficulties know that a child's frustration can get in the way of practicing executive functions skills. To avoid frustration, the games in our activity books have been designed around easy-to-understand concepts. To avoid overwhelm and overstimulation, the design of our pages is simple and clean. Instructions are short and each page contains a maximum of two exercises. The back of each page is blank to allow for thinking space, doodling, or writing. Our books are ideal for children 4 to 8 years old. Depending on the child's executive function age, some of the puzzles and activities may appear too easy and others may seem too complicated. The main purpose of the activities, however, is to engage the child and to build the child’s confidence in his or her individual ability to start and finish a specific task. Start small. It’s okay of the child chooses the easiest activities first. Once engaged, you may be surprised how long they can sustain attention.
