Taylor Method Life Lab — Tackling life's tough topics for kids

What Kids Will Learn

Pretty much anything kids need to navigate growing up.

Life Lab covers the emotional, social, practical, and academic situations kids actually run into — organized into five life areas.

Sample Episodes

What Does Your Child Need to Know Right Now?

Start there. Each Life Lab episode takes one real question or situation and turns it into something your child can understand, remember, and use. One situation. One story. One practical way forward.

What Life Lab Talks About

A few of the conversations Life Lab opens up.

Why Do I Feel Ugly?

What happens when the way we see ourselves suddenly changes — even when we haven’t? Life Lab explores comparison, self-talk, body image, and the stories we start believing about ourselves.

Why Is It So Hard to Get Started?

What’s underneath procrastination, overwhelm, and “I just don’t feel like it”? We explore motivation, friction, and how to get moving when your brain keeps hitting the brakes.

When Someone Is Being Bullied

Do you jump in, get help, or stay quiet? We explore safe ways to respond, how to support someone else, and the difference between helping and escalating.

Nothing to Eat in Here

The fridge looks empty — now what? We turn a kitchen problem into a plan: looking at what’s available, solving a problem, and making something simple.

Lost at the Amusement Park

One minute you’re with your group, the next you’re not. We explore a clear, calm plan for when you get separated from the adults you came with.

I Can’t Do Anything Right

When struggling in one area turns into a belief about who you are. We explore how one hard moment can become a story — and how to question it.
