Wednesday Road Trips

Friday, July 2nd, 2010

What better way to spend a cold winter’s day at school than playing with an assortment of Inquizitive games and puzzles. On Wednesdays Louise is traveling to schools to let students, parents and teachers have hands on experience with an assortment of  them to see how best they can be used in the classroom and at home. If you would like Louise to visit your school, have your teacher give us a call and arrange a day. The brain highly recommends it for a good day in!!!
