"TAKE 5's simple methods were developed to be implemented as needed throughout the day. Whenever a child or adult feels overwhelmed, the cue is to cross the hands into a T and then spread the fingers of one hand wide, signaling it's time to take five minutes, or even 30 seconds, to regroup and find focus. Adults are also instructed to lead by example, taking five whenever they need space to pause and reflect."

"Imagine a school without a timeout room. A school where kids are not banished to the hallway for misbehavior. A world where kids as young as three recognize when they need to TAKE 5 and get in control of their feelings and frustration without disturbing or hurting anyone else."
