@dr.eric.hansen: 🎮 Mario Brothers & Brain Power 🧠 If you or your child struggle with focus or impulse control, this one’s for you. 🧩 Research shows that playing Mario Brothers for 30 minutes a day for 2 months can actually change your brain for the better. 🧠 Increases in: • Right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex – better attention, impulse control + planning • Right hippocampus – improved memory • Cerebellum – sharper coordination and movement 🎯 But here’s the catch — it only works if there’s frustration. That means no save points — just a few lives to push through the challenge. 💪 That bit of frustration helps build resilience and strengthens brain connections. So next time someone says video games are bad — tell them Mario’s just training your brain. 🧠✨ #brainandbodyhealth #primitivereflexes #drerichansen #reflexintegration #childdevelopment #parentingtips #melillomethod #healthykids

Nah. Lion King on the Sega Mega drive. You only have 1 life. You die and you're back to the very start 😂

I wonder how bad my attention span would be now if I didn't play Mario as a kid

No more save points? Someone never learned to hold A and press start when it says “Game Over”? 😁

If anyone is looking for a similarly frustrating, modern game I suggest Hallow Knight Silksong!

When used appropriately, technology is an incredible thing. We all learn differently.

She forgot the 1-up mushroom. You can also reach the pipes further on in the level.

Neat! But it's funny that you're talking about it needs to be harder to beat while she walked across the top of the level to beat it lol

Is this why I feel “enriched” after playing challenging games and drained and kinda empty after playing mindless skinner boxes?
