General Program Information
Tools of the Mind is a nonprofit organization with 30 years of experience researching and applying theory and neuroscience to build young children's self-regulation development. We offer comprehensive preschool and kindergarten curricula and one-day Bite of Tools workshops. Our goal is to empower and support our educators by using research-based strategies in a wide variety of school environments.

- Understanding Challenging Behaviors Through the Lens of Self-Regulation
