520 _a''As a team, build a bridge out or marshmallows and toothpicks. Plan a five-day group trek through the mountains. Work together to move a pile of ping-pong balls fror one location to another... without touching the balls directly. Team Challenges offers more than 170 cooperative activities for classrooms, summer camps, family get-togethers — anywhere teachers, facilitators, or parents hope to cultivate children's problem-solving skills and ability to collaborate. The hands-on projects in Team Challenges teach children to experiment with building methods, discover new uses for everyday items, try on new personas, and express themselves as they work toward a solution. Team members are required to think outside of the box, communicate clearly, and cooperate with each other. Children will learn not only from other members, but from observing how other teams navigate the tasks.'' (Book Jacket)
