I always tell parents to buy a stability ball or an exercise ball to help their hyperactive children when doing homework! Sometimes I get blank stares and sometimes I am not invited back! Seriously though, there is actually some scientific backing for my advice.There is a very interesting report in the Journal of Abnormal Child Psychology. This describes an experiment with some ADHD kids where they found that those kids who actually fidgeted and squirmed a lot during the activity (it was to use Microsoft paint), had better results. They were able to utilize their memory more and had altogether better focus and were able to concentrate better as well.It seems that any secondary physical activity helps the brain to function better and this helps the cortisol activity which is often under par in ADHD hyperactive children. This theory is also supported by Sydney Zentall in her book called ADHD and Education . So, my advice to buy a stability ball for use during homework does not seem so crazy after all.What else can we do to help hyperactive children? I know many parents want to run a mile from highly hyped drugs which are failing in clinical trials although we never...more
