Playing these games is only part of the equation in building executive function. The real goal is for a player to identify their weaknesses and devise strategies to improve performance in the next game. Afterwards, ask questions like,
"What helped you stay calm during the stressful parts?"
"What might you change next time?"
It's always best to give the player the opportunity to think of strategy and plans for improvement on their own. It gives the ability to plan and adapt when no is around to solve the problem.

Fantastic advice!

When was the last time your family laughed without a screen between you?

Reducing screen time isn’t about taking things away—it’s about creating space for connection.
When kids spend less time on devices, they sleep better, focus more easily, and enjoy real-world play that builds confidence and creativity.

Every small step counts — a family walk, a board game, or simply talking about your day. Those little moments shape stronger bonds and happier hearts.
