Strategic Board Game Lab : Play, Learn, Have fun! (Grades 4th – 7th)

Think beyond the board and discover spatial reasoning, math, critical thinking, group work, and cooperation at the core of board games. Dive deep into the how and why of board game design through discussions, analysis and of course, playtesting. Our fun and flexible camp let kids build kingdoms, strategize takeovers, save the planet, solve mysteries and cure disease together, all by playing games!
