My Project

Life-size games offer numerous benefits, including promoting physical activity, fostering social interaction and teamwork, enhancing cognitive skills, and providing a fun, engaging alternative to screen time.

Life-size games often involve more movement than traditional board games, encouraging physical activity and improving coordination and balance.

The giant-sized games encourage kids to participate in teams and thereby increasing interpersonal skills. The bonding between the kids will also increase when the team stick together to achieve a common goal.

This project will give our students the ability to strategically design and challenge each other with a dynamic, tilting tower and connect 4 game design.
