Welcome back to #HomeschoolingWithBoardGames: Inventa Game. This game is for children 4 to 8 but getting kids to clean and get rid of toys is something we all struggle with.
Which is why I choose this game for us to use in our Classroom this week. Not, only can we clean the school room but my office and Charlie’s bedroom de-cluttering and donating to our local Charities.
What is Inventa Game?
We’ve created an awesome game with the help of specialists in early childhood education that encourages our kids to think outside the box, to keep themselves busy while developing many highly important skills.
The game does not require anything special to be purchased – your kids already have everything they need around them – from unused gifts to old mittens!
Kids learn to become independent in their game play and learn to reuse what they have on hand, seeing items with new eyes and appreciation.
This also allows them to occupy themselves – without any screens – in a safe and familiar environment, building problem-solving skills, and most importantly, having a fantastic time.
How great is that?
Reading Class:
Set the game up and read the instructions to the players. Then have them answer questions about the game so you know they understood what is going to happen.
Then they need to ask you questions to make sure you understand what is happening and why.

Make up a Chore List and a list to keep your room organized and what to do with items you don’t use. As well as how long you should keep a item that isn’t being used before you donate the item.
Thank you,
