What we do

​A card game for all ages, inspiring players to invent connection ideas

​We partner with organisations to empower children to invent and create connection spaces

We equip organisations with custom games, resources & guidance for children to create connection spaces

What makes us unique?

We help children create small safe spaces where everyone can feel like they belong.

We believe children can solve shared problems for themselves and others when they’re given the chance to lead, with adults there to help, not take over.

​Our approach is basaed on the principles of Asset-Based Community Development and Roger Hart’s Ladder of Children’s Participation, which believes in children’s ability to use their creativity and leadership to shape their environment.
