Science + P.L.A.Y. = Smiles
(Professional Leadership And You)

Rapid science and engineering advancement is absolutely crucial to ensure economic growth. In the next 10 years, the demand for U.S. scientists and engineers is expected to increase at a rate four times that of other occupations, with 15 of the 20 fastest growing occupations projected through 2010 requiring substantial mathematics and science preparation (International Society for Optical Engineering, 2006). 

The H-A-P-P-Y!!! Science S.A.C.K. offers a new way to introduce fundamental  science concepts through physically active recreational games! Your kids will laugh, compete, get a great workout and be introduced to relevant science concepts that help reinforce the efforts of our great academic institutions. 

Research has shown that one of the most important things for successful concept aquision is the classroom is prior exposure. These games support our educational institutions by exposing children to key science concepts through rigorus physical activity, fun, competition, team work and laugher!

"The more children are exposed to fun, relevant science within the context of every day experiences, the higher the probability that more children will internalize an understanding of it's importance in the world....and perhaps foster a desire to further pursue science learning."

• The Great Calorie Race
  Teaches that overall health is directly related to the calories we consume and the calories we burn. Players must make wise choices in the foods they eat and in the activities they chose to do to burn calories. To win the game they must burn more calories than they eat!
  

• Element Concentration
  This game uses the concept of elements in the periodic table and their relationship to everyday things people use and see around them. In this physically active game players race to match elements such as hydrogen, sodium, nitrogen, sulfur, silicon and more...

• Observation Obsession
  Scientists use keen observations skills to find all the pieces to a puzzle before they can make a new discovery or solve a complex problem. In this game, players race around to identify specific objects earning them pieces to a puzzle. The first team to complet the puzzle wins!  

• Transformers
  Children learn how energy transforms. During the course of this activity race, players transform from solar energy to thermal energy to mechanical energy to electrical energy. As is true with all these games, children remain physically activie participants until there is a winner!   

• The Force
  In this game children learn that force is any push or pull on an object and is used in every we do. By using different balls, players learn how different force is applied. Kids laugh, run and get great exercise.

• North Pole, South Pole
