WHAT — Skill & Persistence
YoYo Wonder
Grit, growth mindset, and the joy of leveling up.
Skill that took a thousand tries — right in front of them.
YoYo Wonder is a live, high-energy demonstration of what practice, focus, and belief in yourself can build. Between jaw-dropping tricks, Jen unpacks the mindset behind each one — how failure is data, how goals get chunked, and why the kids in the room already have everything they need to try.
What's in the show
- 20+ signature yo-yo tricks performed live
- Growth-mindset framing kids can name and repeat
- Interactive challenge moments — the whole room predicts, cheers, and tries
- Ties into character education, PE goal-setting, and SEL curriculum
- Optional hands-on workshop segment with borrowed yo-yos
