Learning better through play, for every child
We believe every child deserves to be seen for who they are and what they can achieve.
Our vision
Every child has unique potential. When a student gets stuck, it is rarely a matter of inability — it is a signal that the right connection is missing. By investing in the foundation, the cognitive and executive building blocks, children start moving again.
Our journey towards meaningful education.
Focus on talent
Our methodology is specifically designed to stimulate and structure students' executive functions.
- Evidence-based
- Centred on a growth mindset
- Play-based learning at its core
Innovation
Continuously seeking the latest insights into cognitive development.
Empathy
We understand the unique challenges of every student.
Collaboration
We build bridges between schools, parents and professionals.
Our mission
CoFun makes scientific insights about cognitive development accessible for education. With our curriculum we offer teachers a practical, playful and proven method to guide students. We observe, reflect and build — step by step.
Our approach
We follow the inverted pyramid: instead of working directly on the executive function a child struggles with, we strengthen the underlying cognitive building blocks. Through play and targeted activities, space for growth emerges from within. This approach is based on the inverted pyramid by Emiel van Doorn of StiBCO.
Why every student?
Both ‘struggling’ and ‘high-achieving’ students rely on the same cognitive and executive functions. When these are underdeveloped, children may show behavioural issues, withdraw or stand out through frustration. CoFun helps students reconnect with their own potential — through play, thinking and growing.
