Global GuppyTanks
Are you in 3rd to 8th grade?
If so, you can enter the WagiLabs “Ideas for Good” contests. These four-week competitions are global “GuppyTanks” just for kids. Every contest has a new challenge question and defined entry and submission dates.
The current challenge is for kids’ ideas to improve in-school and out-of-school learning:
Learning is fun!
“How can you make learning as much FUN as __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __?”
1. Form a team of at least three kids and fill in the blank in the above challenge question. You could put as much fun as “basketball” or as “singing a song.” The possibilities are up to you.
2. Brainstorm ideas on how to make learning fun based on the word or words you added to your sentence!
3. Submit ideas on the entry form. Your team gets bonus points if you also submit a video highlighting your idea.
4. Win $1000 to bring your ideas to life!!!
An all-student judging panel will pick the Top Five ideas. Each of the five winners will receive a $1000 award. All entries are considered open-source and will be posted to showcase the great ideas on August 15, 2022.
All GuppyTank entrants will receive a certified Kidpreneur Badge from St. Louis University Chaifetz School of Business.
