112. The Ultimate Brain Break Toolbox for the End of the Year

Ashleigh and Alisha Episode 112

The countdown is on, the energy is high, and if you’ve ever looked around your classroom and thought, “We need a reset right now,” this episode is for you.

In this episode, we’re opening up our Brain Break Toolbox with eight quick and cheerful ideas to help your students reset, refocus, and release that festive season energy in a purposeful way.

These aren’t time-fillers. They’re intentional, effective, and designed to help you maintain calm and / or connection in the final stretch before the holidays.

From silent snowflakes to Christmas countdown breathing, these tools will help you create balance, boost student focus, and support your own wellbeing as the end-of-year buzz ramps up.

What You’ll Learn:

  • Simple movement-based brain breaks that promote calm
  • Quick energy-burners to reset the vibe fast
  • Festive activities that still encourage teamwork and focus
  • How to use brain breaks as a proactive classroom management tool
  • Why small resets can make a big difference to behaviour and learning

You’ve got this, teachers. Keep breathing, stay playful, and finish the term feeling proud.

Rainbows ahead,
Alisha and Ashleigh
