“At Primrose Schools, we have the privilege of partnering with parents to help shape children’s minds and lay the foundation for future success,” said Christy Black, Franchise Owner of Primrose School of Bee Cave, Primrose School of Lakeway, Primrose School of West Lake Hills, and Primrose School of Austin at Mueller. “That’s why we focus on nurturing these crucial executive function skills – along with skills like literacy, math, generosity, empathy and more – so children develop a foundation that empowers them to be anything they want when they grow up.”

At Primrose, children learn and practice executive function skills every day in age-appropriate ways through the Primrose-exclusive Balanced Learning approach. For example, Pre-K and Kindergarten students do an activity that challenges them to create boats that float from classroom materials. Repurposing classroom objects to create something new requires adaptability, and the children deepen their working memory as they remember and follow instructions. Children also work together on the challenge, naturally engaging in teamwork. Even seemingly small actions occur each day to nurture these important skills, such as Primrose teachers asking children “why do you think” and “what if” questions as they play to promote critical thinking and problem solving.
