Football - Mindset : Courage in Every Down

Mindset – Courage in Every Down is a ThinkBox theme that empowers children to explore emotional growth through the lens of football. Inspired by game-day grit, teamwork, and the power of a reset, this box helps students develop emotional resilience, regulation, and confidence through hands-on, sensory play.

Each box includes:

• Calming sand in a football field shaped tray with choice of sand color.  

• Themed objects (helmet, football, jersey, hearts, goalpost, and more)

• 12 SEL activities focused on mindset, courage, and bouncing back after setbacks

• Prompts to guide self-awareness, goal-setting, and building mental strength

• Screen-free, tactile experiences that support calm reflection and emotional growth

SEL Focus:

• Practicing courage in the face of mistakes

• Developing self-regulation during pressure moments

• Building confidence through repetition and routine

• Growth mindset and mental resets after emotional “fumbles”

Ideal for ages 6–14, this box supports any child learning to manage pressure, build inner strength, and face life’s challenges with a steady heart and resilient mindset.

“The next play always gives you a chance to grow stronger.” — ThinkBox philosophy
