Brain Balance of Allen

Our Executive Director, Babar, had a blast visiting Dr Garrett’s Chiropractic Practice over in Frisco. If you’re in the area and need a great Chiro then check out Vital Motion Chiropractic! #NeuroConnections #BBOA 🧠

At Brain Balance, we believe in the POWER OF PLAY! Developmentally, kids start “mutual play” around 4-6 years of age...This is the play that teaches us to listen, share, communicate, and problem-solve with our peers. It is so important for our children to have play-dates and play together. Some of life’s greatest treasures are your childhood friends! It’s through mutual play that kids learn how to create and maintain friendships.

Why Ages 2-7 Matter So Much for Brain Development

Understanding how brain development happens can help you better understand your child. This article also mentions one of our favorite books here at Brain Balance, The Whole-Brain Child! #GreatRead #BBOA

Why Ages 2-7 Matter So Much for Brain Development Rich experiences—from play to the arts and relationships—fundamentally shape a young child’s development.

The Allen center will be closed on Thursday! Hoping all of our families stay safe and warm 💕 #BBOA

One of our sweet students decided we needed a new Welcome sign 😍 Thanks Sara, we love it! #WelcomeToBB #BBOA

The magic of imaginary play gives kids the power to conquer things like the monsters under the bed, the dragon in the backyard, or exploring outer space in an old box covered in foil. Albert Einstein said “Logic will get you from A to B, but imagination will take you everywhere.” Imaginary play helps build kids’ confidence and self-perception! At Brain Balance, we believe in the POWER OF PLAY!

There’s nothing stronger than our student’s fine motor skills!

Our favorite evenings are spent with family and friends playing games, sharing food, and making memories. But the best part is that family game night encourages family togetherness which can help curb anxiety and foster a feeling of security and happiness.

What is your family's favorite game to play for Family Game Night?

Our Queen of Core, Noor, just doing what she does best.. educating our students on the importance of not only a strong body, but also a strong mind. 💪🏼👏🏼 #breakthroughs #QueenofCore #strongteam

Sometimes the little gains add up to be big wins! It is incredible to hear families tell us that their children are doing things they never thought would happen!

Our students have TOADALLY been crushing February so far. Happy Valentine’s Day from The Brain Balance of Allen team 💚💛 #neuroconnections #BBOA

Valentine’s day is here! It’s a day to remember and appreciate the people you love. But what if we extended that love even further? What will you do? Maybe leave some flowers on your neighbor's porch or take a care package to a homeless shelter. Let’s put some real heart into Valentine's day this year!

Taking another opportunity to brag on our team… This sweet kiddo came in early and Gene jumped into action to keep him busy until his session. We love our kids and we are so thankful for team members that put in their all for them. 🧠⭐️✨ #teamstrong #welovewhatwedo #BBOA

Family game nights are not only fun but they have so many hidden benefits. For example, the game of operation is amazing for the development of fine motor skills, focus and patience! How does your family do Family Game Night?

This week we are focusing on FOCUS! Our amazing Cognitive and Academic coaches, Haley and Gwyn, have been crushing it on keeping our students engaged and pushing forward. We couldn’t do it without you guys 💕🧠 #makingbreakthroughs #BBOA

This is our why… The journey from start to finish looks different for all of our families, but getting to the end of programming and looking back at how far they have come is a truly special moment. We love seeing our families and students graduate and move forward outside of programming, but we so miss seeing them every week. To the Noll family, your journey is definitely an inspiring one. Thank you for investing in your daughter and thank you for all of the memories you have allowed us to make with her. She will move mountains and from all of us at the Allen center, we can’t wait to hear about it.

At Brain Balance, we believe in the POWER OF PLAY! We've all heard that practice makes perfect and when children play, they are practicing for life! It is important for children of all ages to engage in play to help develop communication skills, problem-solving skills, and more. The more they play, the more practice they get!

At Brain Balance, we believe in the POWER OF PLAY! According to @thecenterforparentingeducation, children who played with their parents had more positive mental health, stronger friendships and experienced a stronger family bond when compared to those whose parents did not play with their children as much. So get your play on!
