AdventureQuest – Leadership Games, Ages 6-8
Children go on a quest to play a series of fun and exciting games that require them to use their imagination and thinking skills. They will learn to blend both their cooperation and leadership abilities in order to finish the game. Some of the games include giant mazes with each child taking turns leading the ball thru the labyrinth, others require the group to build large structures using giant legos or foam blocks and then performing activities that include their use. In yet another game, the children will construct a large integrated walkway and then navigate it as a group without touching each other. It is fun yet challenging to do. While they think they are just having fun, the reality is that they are developing leadership and socialization skills that will last a lifetime. Facilitated by Team Makers
