Many children have figured out that one of the best ways for them to learn about their world is by watching videos. Going to YouTube or other video channels can be incredibly informative if you want to learn about fixing something in your house, get the most out of your new cell phone, or learn new and exciting ways to exercise, as well as how the benefits of exercise can affect you. Parents can watch and exercise along with their kids or simply get information on the importance of exercise.

Our team of neuropsychologists, school psychologists, and psychology students at South County Child and Family Consultants are committed to searching the Internet and beyond to find reputable, informative, and practical tools to help parents, children, and teens improve your child’s exercise habits. We look for the best information online to help kids diagnosed with ADHD, Learning Disabilities, executive-functioning difficulties, struggles with Social Emotional Learning (SEL) skills, autism, depression, and anxiety and provide you with information about how neuropsychological evaluations help in targeting concerns regarding your child’s exercise habits, or lack thereof. Come back regularly, as the links are updated frequently.
