1st Grade (Ages 6-7)
This story introduces children to the reward pathway, the place in your brain that makes you feel happy.
- The main job your brain has is to keep you alive.
- When you do something that you need to do to stay alive, like eating food, you “feel” happy. This makes sure you do that behavior again.
- Whenever you feel happy, your reward system is working, so listen to your brain…it wants you to be happy.
