GBMy son was intrigued from the start and… My son was intrigued from the start and was able to quickly understand the concept. I noticed even on the first day how successful he was a bringing his heart rate down with breathing. Thank you Mightier for helping my son is such a quick turnaround timeframe!

GBGood 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.

GBIt 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!

GBVery helpful This was great for our 7yr old son who often would get frustrated easily and have outbursts. He would always get frustrated and more angry if I told him to breathe. This helped him learn to do that ina fun way. We subscribed for 1 yr and after that decided to pause on it. He has been better and sometimes when he's frustrated I see him go off alone into a different room and then come back calm. I'm sure part of it was just him growing up, but I do think mightier helped as well. He is not diagnosed with anything specific, just a regular kid getting angry. They do charge you again automatically for the following year, so be on top of that . Their support is super helpful and friendly for anything needed.

GBWe 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.
