Games for the Library

Help me give my students the simple fun and art of playing board games.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Arechaederra - PVMS Library's classroom raised $195

This project is fully funded

My Project

Students know how to play video games, but do they know the art and fun of a board game and good old-fashioned coloring? Help me bring back the fun by bringing board games to the library. I noticed when we pulled our old board games at lunch, students really jumped on the idea and loved to play them; they even closed their computers!

Games are not only fun, but they are good for the brain helping to sharpen focus, increase concentration, and teach the value of teamwork.

Board games are even good for mental health, helping to soothe anxiety. Bring back the fun!
