Friday Fun: The Game That Builds (and Reveals) Response Inhibition

There’s a moment in childhood that every adult recognizes.

A body is in motion.
Feet are flying.
Excitement is high.

And then—

“STOP.”

The brain has to decide:

Do I keep going?

Or do I override the impulse?

That split second — the pause between urge and action — is where executive functioning lives.

And this week’s Friday Fun practices that skill in the most joyful way possible.
