About Play Wisely
The Play Wisely® learning system maximizes the efficiency, effectiveness, and "fun of learning" because how we teach is the same way that the brain actually learns. We developed the Play Wisely® Flashcard System to efficiently wire visual skills and early learning and language ability. It is about sharpening the neurosensory skills that assist your child in learning. When your child discovers their purpose, passion, or talent the wiring will be there to help them fully realize their dreams!
Merging science, education, and sport, Play Wisely®'s neurosensory/cortical training system is designed to "turn on and tune in" early learning and movement ability. Play Wisely ® emphasizes that early cognitive and motor learning is not what we recognize as the traditional reading, writing, arithmetic and sports skills but rather as the development of the navigational skills and processing ability that will eventually allow later skills to be deployed efficiently. The goal of this unique system is to support a broad base of efficient neural circuitry so each child has the opportunity to develop the brain and body confidence to feel successful in any learning and/or movement environment.
"PlayWisely®, a curriculum and pioneering developmental play system for little ones ages four months to 3 years, serves as a potential mechanism to jump start a child's intellectual and athletic foundation, something that may prove to help children learn more effectively during their formal education."
Professor Eugene Galanter
Director, Psychophysics Laboratory, Columbia University
"Our Purpose is to inspire each child’s Brain and Body Confidence so later when a child discovers their purpose, passion or talent the wiring will be there to fully realize their dreams."

Play Wisely® helps develop particularly these skills:
-
Focus and eye teaming - eyes working together to attend appropriately
-
Tracking - smoothly following stimuli directionally within the visual field
-
Signal detection - the ability to attend one piece of data to the exclusion of others
-
JND - just noticeable difference of stimuli
-
Acuity - keenness of perception
-
Discrimination - differentiation of stimuli
-
Directionality - awareness of positions and orientation of stimuli
-
Sensory Property Coordination - recognition that motion, sounds and sights are intimately linked, allowing us to create expectations regarding the objects and actions of our world
-
SIP - speed of information processing
-
Pattern Recognition - the ability to organize data and detect meaning
-
Brain Region Interconnectivity - intertwining the specialties of the brain areas to process certain attributes that together enhance the interpretation of our world
-
Input/Output Efficiency - ability to coordinate appropriate and efficient responses to defined inputs
