Mar 18 Fidgeting Tip- The Signs Of ADHD

 Know the Signs of ADHD

If your child consistently exhibits these signs, have a professional evaluation done so immediate support can be given.

• *Has problems with paying attention.
• *Has difficulty following instructions.
• *Is very active (hyperactivity). 
• *Talks a lot, has difficulty playing quietly.
• *Acts before thinking (impulsive).

As many as 5 out of every 100 children in school may have ADHD. Boys are three times more likely than girls to have ADHD.

Your child may be inattentive, impulsive, and too active but underneath all this, there is a child that is capable of learning and dearly wants to learn.

Most students with ADHD can be helped by professionals or changes in their environments/home/classrooms. A simple first aid action by parents is providing fidgets to use up that pent-up energy and to soothe this hyperactive brain.
