Children are natural problem solvers. Children problem solve when learning to walk, when they learn to pick up a ball from the floor, and when they learn to put a spoon in their mouth. Mathematical play should be geared around the idea of problem solving. This does not mean finding the right answer to a problem like 2 + 2, it means designing scenarios where children have to apply the mathematical knowledge they already have to a new situation and be able to reflect on their own processes or strategies for solving or fixing these situations.

Here are some examples of problem solving in play and how you, as a caregiver, can support it.

Heads up, parents and caregivers: kids aged 10-14 years are more likely to be killed out on their bikes than any other age group. Protect your kids by getting them the right equipment, setting rules for biking, and teaching them when and where to ride (i.e., bike paths and protected lanes).

New national data reveals two major trends in teen mental and behavioral health

✅ The good news: The majority of teens today are steering clear of risky behaviors like substance use, violence, and unsafe s*x. In fact, the “Low Everything” group — teens reporting low levels of all risk behaviors — has grown from 40% to nearly 60% of youth.

🚨 What's concerning: At the same time, the number of teens experiencing internal struggles like depression and suicidality — without engaging in risky external behaviors — is on the rise. This “High Internalizing” group has grown steadily since 2009.

The data revealed that this growing group of teens with internalizing symptoms includes more girls, younger adolescents, and youth of color. Teens may look “fine” on the outside while quietly battling emotional pain.

We need to meet teens where they're at, supporting their emotional well-being in all its forms. If you're a parent concerned about your teen's mental health, you can take our free Family Mental Health Check-up to understand if their behavior is concerning by clicking the link in bio 🔗

When he surveyed his class of college students, the social psychologist Jonathan Haidt found that a majority of their days, from the first thing in the morning to the last moment before sleep, were spent checking texts, direct messages, and social media feeds on their phones—habits inculcated many years before. At the same time, statistics have shown a troubling rise of depression, anxiety, and su***de among adolescents since the early 2010s. To Haidt, who’s spent years studying moral and social development, these habits and these statistics are inextricably linked.

In his article for The Atlantic, he makes a definitive case for the end of phone-based childhood: outlining all the ways smartphone-based life interferes with a number of key developmental processes, impedes healthy habits, and weakens social bonds between adolescents. At its outset, the digital world seemed exciting and full of promise. Now, Haidt writes, we must face this question: “How much of life is exchanged for all this screen time?”

But it’s not too late to change course—and with proper coordination, he writes, it could be easier than we think. Haidt offers four reforms we can start implementing today in our schools and communities to catalyze a movement towards a happier, healthier existence.

1️⃣ No smartphones until high school

2️⃣ No social media until 16

3️⃣ Phone-free schools

4️⃣ More independence, free play, and responsibility in the real world
