Good for Cognitive Understanding My children (7, 9, and 11) all enjoyed playing the mightier games. They were also able to learn about how their body and heart rate responds to their feelings as well as various cool down techniques. I have not seen this cognitive knowledge transfer to behavior in other circumstances. We still have many outbursts and intense reactions in our home. However, this knowledge about their heart rate and the visual meter that they use in the games have given us a vocabulary and mental model that allows us to discuss what is happening in their bodies and how it affects their behavior. I think this is a good first step. Hopefully eventually with time and practice they will actually be able to apply this cognitive understanding.

Highly Recommend We signed up for Mightier to help support emotional regulation goals for our kiddos. They both love the games and absolutely experienced growth and awareness around regulation. Highly recommend!

We love Mightier! We love Mightier! My 7 year old son struggles with impulse control and his anger. I can definitely see a difference in his response when he is frustrated or mad. We have taught him for years to try and breath through his anger but he would always get more mad in the moment when we told him that. After he started playing Mightier it finally clicked, I saw him using breath to calm himself without cues from us.

It really works It really works! We had a rough year with the transition to elementary school last year. Our oldest son was getting into physical fights with kids at recess. My mom found Mightier through a google search and it was such a great idea, we just had to give it a try! Our kiddo is so much HAPPIER this year! Every day he is excited to go to school and happy when he gets home from having another great day. I think Mightier was a real breakthrough for us as parents as well. We were so scared to introduce screen time, let alone video games before the pandemic hit... once virtual education became a necessity our screen time perspective had to be re-considered. Mightier provided an intuitive and SAFE way for us to introduce healthy gaming habits and expectations to our children. They love playing. They know that if they don't share nicely, fairly, and respectfully with each other, they won't get to play. And I have seen them all grow because of this interaction with the game and with each other. Thank you Mightier! What a brilliant resource!

Mightier brought positive and effective change Mightier brought positive and effective change to our kids and family. We sought Mightier because one of our kids was diagnosed with borderline ADHD, but he was still young and we were not ready to try medicine. We felt that he still had some development work to do and we could change our behaviors as a family to support him better before we ask him to change to us. Mightier became a tool within that plan. He loves video games and we didn't allow a lot of screen time prior to this, so Mightier felt like a huge treat. The excellent graphics, games, and encouragement with in-app rewards kept them excited for the program. The breathing and calming exercises brought awareness to our kids about their own body, and that overflowed into daily life. 6 months later, our son's signs of ADHD have significantly reduced and affect him less in school and at home. We believe Mightier helped us give him time to develop and evaluate his needs more, because we provided him tools to understand his body better.
