Welcome To My Brain is an exciting new card game to help everyone understand and celebrate neurodiversity.

You can use these stunning cards to help people of all ages have great conversations about how their unique brains work, and how we can create homes, schools, tertiaries, clubs and workplaces where everyone’s brain gets to shine. 

Check it out!

What our teachers are saying

"What a great way to spark rich conversations about our brains! The images are so compelling and varied… they pull you in and make you want to explore more."

Why we made it

Our brains are as unique as our fingerprints. Each of us experiences the world differently, from how we sense and process information, to how we feel and communicate. This may be more obvious for neurodivergent people, but it applies to all of us.

 

We wanted to create a fun and accessible way to have great conversations about how all of our own brains work and what they need to be their best. With this understanding, we can design together our own neuroinclusive classrooms, schools, workplaces and homes that take all of our needs into account.
