Jumping for brainpower: new study tests if active play boosts thinking in Low-Income preschoolers

This study looks at whether a teacher-led program of fun, movement-based activities can improve thinking skills like memory and attention in preschool children from low-income families. About 112 children will take part over 6 months, with researchers checking how well the program works and if it helps kids' brain development. The goal is to see if this simple, play-based approach can support early learning in children who may have fewer resources.
