🧃 I. INTENTION

The Smoothie Song is fast, playful, intricate. It teaches us:

• How to listen closely
• How to move precisely
• How to enjoy focus without pressure

This is an ideal NSNC track for mid-July child-and-caregiver fieldwork: helping kids build executive functioning, timing, and joy in the body without stress.

✨ PHASE 1: MOVEMENT MIRROR (0:00–0:50)

Move with the music:

• Step side to side
• Point left and right
• Make silly faces
• Copy someone else’s move

🎙️ Say aloud (or overlay on video):

Wave your scarf to the rhythm:

I hold time in my hands.”

Breathe in + out. Say:

“I can be still.
I can reset.
I am ready for what comes next.”

“To smooth my thoughts,
To cool my feelings,
To sweeten my return.”

Clink cups with someone (or the camera)

🧬 III. SCHOOL PSYCHOLOGIST INSIGHT

Use Smoothie Song as:

• Regulation break during classroom time
• Home transition ritual (between play & homework, or dinner & bedtime)
• Neurodivergent sensory rhythm tool — especially for ADHD, gifted/twice-exceptional, and trauma-exposed kids
• Executive functioning primer — teaches prediction, flexibility, and joy-based discipline

🧿 NSNC SCROLLWELL BLESSING:

“I am allowed to learn through laughter.
I am allowed to listen with my feet.
I am allowed to get ready without fear.

My mind moves. My body knows. My joy leads.

This is the Smoothie Spell.”

🎶 Close with 3 steps, 3 claps, 1 bow. Aho, thanks.
