The children (and staff) are divided into teams using our unique techniques to break up cliques requiring the children to work together outside their pure comfort zone, but in a fun way. Each challenge has a STEM component for the children to master and use to help them figure out how to solve the challenge. All challenges are large format games. 201.500.8076
