Project Background

BrainBounce is an affordable digital tablet designed to support children experiencing emotional dysregulation. The concept was inspired by the experience of a public primary school teacher in Detroit who struggled to find effective tools for managing student meltdowns in the classroom. Through interviews with teachers across the Midwest, the challenge became clear: how might we empower educators to support elementary students with emotional regulation during meltdowns in a way that minimizes classroom disruption?
