Curious Kids

Maths Games Nights

Host a Maths Games Night at your school. Book the date with us and then let us do the rest. For a small fee of $150 we give you two sample games to demonstrate around the school before the event and also sample flyers, newsletter blurbs etc. We supply all the demonstration games and spend four hours teaching the students and running the event for you. And as our games are being offered for sale, we will even give you back 15% of the sales in free product of your choice from our full range.

Our successful formula for a Curious Kids Games Night means that everyone benefits – pupils, parents and the school.

You need to promote the evening through your newsletter etc, arrange the space and tables to be used and select up to fourteen of your senior pupils who will rise to the leadership opportunity of learning some new games in the afternoon and then teaching others on the night.

We can also play some literacy or SOSE based games for those less mathematically inclined if you wish.

Contact Heather at Curious Kids on 03 5971 5333 or at heather@curiouskids.com.au to see if we have a Curious Kids Agent near your school to run an event for you.

Here is what Sandy O’Meara the Junior School Coordinator at Balnarring Primary School (Victoria) had to say about the Maths Games Night they hosted:

"What started out as a school fund raiser turned into a wonderfully entertaining evening of fun and challenge as children and adults alike had a go at a huge range of maths games which provided something for everyone.

Heather had ensured that the evening would run smoothly by recruiting and training a group of Year 6 students as ‘assistants’ for the night. They each had responsibility for a game, which they were then able to explain to parents and children, so we all enjoyed the night even more.

The games on display were, of course, for sale but there was absolutely no big sales pitch or pressure to buy from Heather - the games were so good that they sold themselves and everyone who came went home feeling like they had been entertained and if they chose to purchase a game or two, which many did, it was through no sense of obligation.

The only problem we encountered with the night was getting people to stop and go home - they were having such a good time they were reluctant to leave.

In these days of electronic entertainment, it was wonderful to see so many adults and children laughing, talking and sharing a board game. We are sure that many who came along were quite surprised at how much fun they had."
