Executive Function Check-in

A 5-minute screening tool to understand your child’s executive function strengths and challenges.

What Are Executive Functions?

Executive functions are the brain’s management system — they help your child plan, organize, manage time, control impulses, and adapt to change. Think of them as your child’s internal "project manager."

This check-in includes 10 simple questions exploring 5 key areas. There are no right or wrong answers — respond based on what you typically observe in your child.
