Defeat Distractibility!

You’ve worked through the Superflex curriculum with your students and now you’re ready to dive deeper. This discounted two-book set featuring the Unthinkable Brain Eater (we are officially changing Unthinkables to UnthinkaBots) and Thinkable Focus Tron explores one of the social learning challenges we see most often in our students—distractibility! The lessons in these two books complement each other and they even share similar settings and characters to bridge the learning.

These engaging books are part of our Superflex series, which is designed to help children learn about their own and others’ thoughts and behaviors, and practice strategies for self-regulation across a variety of situations. As kids learn strategies to defeat the Unthinkables and unexpected behavior, they strengthen their flexible thinking and are better able to self-regulate in challenging times.

1. Superflex Takes on Brain Eater and the Team of Unthinkables

In this award-winning storybook, readers are introduced to the Unthinkable Brain Eater, who uses his powers to distract citizens’ brains from focusing on what they’re doing or what others are talking about. Checklists, Distracter Shields, fidgets and other superflexible strategies are explored to help readers find their Superflex inside and defeat Brain Eater! Buy it at a discount as part of the set, or individually for full price.

2. Superflex and Focus Tron to the Rescue!

Complementing the teachings found in the book above, this illustrated storybook introduces readers to the Thinkable Focus Tron. Wherever they are—at school, or home, in the community—Focus Tron helps Social Town citizens remember to use their focusing powers to stay connected to what they’re doing or what others are talking about. Buy it at a discount as part of the set, or individually for full price.
