Mindjoy Magic (things to keep top of mind)


At Mindjoy, we want kids (and coaches!) to have an amazing learning experience! We want everyone to experience Mindjoy Magic!✨
What is Mindjoy Magic? This is when you are:
Learning something
Interacting with others (peer-to-peer learning)
Having FUN
Engaged

Even if things don’t go according to plan, improvise, and remember that LIFE goes on! 🤩
The Mindjoy Magic Mantra is also a great way to check in with yourself when things feel like they’re not going according to plan, and you can phrase these elements as questions.
