We
received some amazing thank you letters from the students at Metropolitan Schoolhouse
here in Chicago. Last week Stacey was a guest speaker at the school,
playing both Centsible Kids and Choice-A-Quence with the students.
The games
are used as part of the curriculum, where a “powerful learner-centered approach
to education connects academics with life skills, social skills, communication
skills and technology that are necessary in today’s world.” We
love sharing our ideas helping children build their skills to
live with the awareness that wise choices are in your control and help you
reach your goals.
Here is
what a few of the children had to say in their thank you letters.
• "Thank you for coming to
Metropolitan Schoolhouse! I had lots of fun playing Choice-A-Quence.
I liked it because it shows you that you will make choices in life and
there will always be a consequence whether it is good or bad."
• "Thank you for choosing
Metropolitan. I think Choice-A-Quence was a great game because I learned
that one choice can have up to 10 consequences! That's crazy!"
• "Thank you for visiting us and showing our newcomers how to play Centsible Kids and
Choice-A-Quence. They had a lot of fun. I did too. My
Favorite part was "earning" the Centsible Kids money because it was
like really getting it."
• "I liked Centsible Kids.
It helped me to think wisely when it comes to my money. I want to
buy … games at a game store."
All of the
letters were so enthusiastic. Our mission is helping children live with awareness
leading to wise choices. It is always rewarding when we have a chance to go
out and play our games with children. What a reward to hear their feedback and
see them making connections and growing their skills. We wish to give many thanks to Metropolitan Schoolhouse for a fabulous
experience.
