Do you avoid the toy section at the store so you don’t have to listen to your kids beg and plead for the latest toys they want? It’s no surprise that kids want fun toys and games, and parents want to buy educational toys that make their kids happy and also learn at the same time.
But how can we make this meaningful, so parents don’t feel like ATM machines, and kids can do something worthwhile to earn the toys and games they want? Imagine Toys has happily joined the CWIST gang to offer a playful, creative solution to this common problem because we believe play and learning go hand in hand.
What is CWIST?
CWISTs are educational, outdoor or community-service challenges for kids, ages 5-11 to complete. As children complete these learning challenges they earn special rewards from Imagine Toys linked to the cwists. Teachers and parents are encouraged to contribute to the engaging library of cwists.
New, age-appropriate challenges continue to be added to this interactive digital platform, so it will remain fresh and interesting to kids. Fun, learning-packed cwists have been created based on the educational toys and games available at Imaginetoys.com that we think make especially fun rewards.
Kids will be able to choose cwists from a variety of different topics that they will find interesting and want to dive in and discover.
A few of the topics they can soak up are history, science, and music. The community-service cwists will show kids that they are a part of a bigger community and helping people is important. Having fun helping and learning will only encourage them to love learning as they continue to grow and never stop wanting to learn.
The cwists will have kids thinking creatively and engaging in hands-on projects to reinforce learning. Once your child completes a challenge, the education doesn’t stop there. Your child will continue learning through the fun, playful toys, games and puzzles they chose from Imagine Toys as the reward for their hard work. Kids will be proud of their accomplishments and increase their self-esteem as they learn life skills completing the various challenges. Your child can tackle as many challenges as they want to continue earning rewards and learning valuable life skills. As a parent you will love guiding your child through the challenges and rewarding their efforts with meaningful and educational rewards that continue the learning process.
Why CWIST is Important
The cwists will have kids thinking creatively and engaging in hands-on projects to reinforce learning. Start teaching your child one of life’s big lessons; you have to work hard and earn the things you really want. The different challenges will also give kids knowledge in subjects they learn in school in a fun environment guided by parents. Each cwist has clear instructions on how to complete the quest, but kids will have to learn how to be resourceful to find some of the information needed. Kids will be proud of their accomplishments and increase their self-esteem as they practice and learn life skills completing the various challenges. As a parent you will love guiding your child through the educational challenges and rewarding their efforts with meaningful and educational toys that continue the learning process.
CWISTs are wonderful activities for kids and parents that foster the parent-child relationship. Go learn, explore and create with your child with these out of the ordinary challenges.
