1. Ignite a passion to learn something new.
2. Bring kids together to teach and learn from each other.
3. Get kids' brains working strategically.

5. Encourage kids to learn how to win or lose graciously.
6. Help kids realize that you don't always get what you want right away...sometimes you have to wait your turn.
7. Help kids understand that sometimes you are wrong and it is OK to admit it.
