What Educators are saying about GivaGeta

1. The cards would be a very good tool for me to use with my team building. We have school groups that come in and we teach different value games. This would be great for our small group discussions." Jill Wagner - Honsdale, PA
2. “It fits in line very well with our ‘Learning for Life Program’ which is all about Character Education.” Jody S Southern NJ…Boy Scouts
3. “It’s all about self esteem and building up self-confidence in children. I see this as a win-win and once the kids bring them home the parents will love it. This is a great game for after dinner. This is all about PBS, ‘Positive Behavior Support’ for children and it’s a great tool. “ Coach Bruce Tulane University
4. “Sometimes we miss the important things like friendship, learning respect, and understanding how children need to get those basic, really, really, important messages. I think the cool thing about the cards is that they teach those messages. It’s all about connecting to others. By understanding each other we can make the world a better place.” Cecil Calliste, Trainer/Consultant

“The sayings on the pencils reinforce the theme I am teaching in the ”Steps to Respect Program” in the Riverhead School District on Long Island, NY. This program begins in 2nd grade and continues up through middle school. The students were delighted with these pencils, reading the sayings to each other and trading. The biggest surprise came when they discovered how they change colors. The teachers also were impressed with the response and enthusiasm of the students. Thank you for this great product! We all want the best for our children and your products are a great way to guide and prepare them in a positive, fun way.”
