FIX THE PROBLEM! How to play:

DIRECTIONS FOR KIDS

Hi, I’m Todd! The grown-up with you will describe a lot of different kids, each with a different problem.

Try your best to FIX THE PROBLEM by giving your own ideas and advice!

TODD

Hi, I’m Carla! You might often notice that some of the kids have problems kind of like your own!

When this happens, speak up, and let the other players know about how you can fix your own problem!
