Dream thought bubbles

Pencil and paper games

These are traditional pencil and paper games and activities that teach important concepts in a fun and memorable way. Each game highlights a mini-step in our process of learning how to dream and turning those dreams into reality. Our games also reinforce basic subjects like the three Rs (reading, writing and arithmetic) and are intended to keep kids grounded in this digitally-saturated world.

And stay tuned to test drive some new games for our upcoming sequel “Map it!”

How to fall uphill

Here is a fun new graphic that I created. It has been simmering in my brain for years. I think it really captures the essence of how doubt and fear are essential to any adventure. The trick is harnessing that emotional fuel and turning disadvantages into advantages.

Easter Egg Hunt

Try to find all the hidden surprises in Dream It!

Easter Egg Hunt Game for "Dream it!"

Our first game is a companion game for our new book “Dream It!” is The Easter Egg Hunt. In this case, “Easter egg” means a hidden surprise. If you saw the movie Ready Player One, you learned that the first hidden surprise was a message in the 1979 video game “Adventure” by Atari. The term was coined “Easter egg” to encourage players to hunt for all the surprises just like the real holiday game. It became so popular that Easter eggs are now part of almost every game, movie and television show, and — of course — our book.
