Is your toddler always bored? Are they constantly looking for something else to do? Do they struggle to play a game, do a project or watch a TV programme without getting itchy feet and wanting to move onto the next thing? This is a clear indication of an under stimulated ADHD brain needing something more exciting to do.If nursery and play group teachers are noticing that your child struggles to stay focused, dig deeper.
ADHD brains are wired to think they know best and from a very young age. I’ve literally seen three-year-olds telling their parents exactly why they know best and want things their own way!

Compulsivity is also hugely linked to ADHD. Put simply, when an ADHD brain gets a taste for something it likes, it cannot regulate itself to stop. So, if you have a child who instead of having one slice of cake eats the whole cake and then feels terribly sick or opens a multipack of crisps and eats all twelve packets, these are clear signs of a compulsive brain that won’t let the child know when they have had enough.
