To help you use creative recreation to instill core values such as kindness, respect, integrity, self-control, and responsibility.

A variety of research shows that nationwide, children today are lacking core values such as kindness, respect, self-control, integrity and accountability. The importance of instilling character education in today’s youth needs to be at the top of the agenda for school professionals, recreation programs, childcare providers, parents, and other decision makers. In our training, we will review both the components of character education and learn how creative, interactive play can be utilized to help instill core values.

Participants will:

1. Understand the components of character education and its importance in society
2. Understand why today's youth are living passive lifestyles (with little pure play) and
   what the effects are
3. Learn the benefits of creative cooperative play
4. Experience the Game Generator and learn how to effectively integrate it into any
   program to help instill core values
