Oct 9, 2014. California, USA – Grab the kids and get ready for a new take on family game night. Now you can really use your W.I.T.S to win! The latest innovative all-ages game is called “What is the Sentence” or W.I.T.S. The development and testing is done and the response from kids and educators has been fantastic. With some simple cards (big enough for small hands), dice and a couple of timers this awesome game brings fun and learning together in a big way.
WITS is set to sweep living rooms and classrooms across the nation – but first they need a little help from you. That’s why the creators at WITS Games have created this crowd-funded Kickstarter campaign. As seasoned educational game developers, they know this is a solid product and can’t wait to share the excitement of this innovative board game (targeted age 7+) with as many kids, parents, and teachers as possible before the end of the year. There are plenty of perks and heaps of thanks for your support.
The designer, WITS Games, is actually a gaming company that specializes in providing easy to understand, entertaining and educationally based products. This game is easy to set up with a small table or any flat surface. The best part? It’s quick to learn and jump right in – something kids and grownups both appreciate. Kids simply use the letters on the cards in front of them to make up a sentence. It can be as serious or kooky as the players.
With a foundation in fun and creativity, the learning is intuitive and the game helps build vocabulary and sentence structure. WITS challenges players to score points that are awarded through sentences created from letter cards, which are dealt from the deck. Each word in a sentence must begin with the corresponding letter on the card. Simple. Since it’s easy and very interactive, the game engages players and is different every time.
WITS is perfect for playing kids against kids or the kids vs parents since reading level really doesn’t matter. If you can read the letters of the alphabet you can play. As Educational Coordinator Ginger Henderson explains, “What is the Sentence? (W.I.T.S.) has been getting great reviews from everyone (parents, teachers and kids) who’ve tested the game. As the Kickstarter video shows, “W.I.T.S. teaches and enforces sentence structure, it is also a learning tool, and helps create a responsive classroom environment.” Not only is it a fun way to get kids really excited and engaged, it can help them to retain more words and have better listening skills.
This game works by challenging the players to create a real (bona fide) sentence from the letter cards in front of them. Excitement is cranked up a notch since you can play against time and action cards. The gamers can also protect their sentence and points from being stolen by opponents.
