It’s a little magic, really. When kids see heroes tackling big problems together, it plants the seed that teamwork can solve anything. And those epic quests? They’re like puzzles waiting to be cracked, so kids practice planning, testing ideas, and learning from failure. It’s not just superhero capes—each battle, each side‑quest is a mini lesson in problem‑solving. Of course, I sometimes worry they’ll think every solution is a “save the world” moment, but if we nudge them to see the small victories, the real power of those games shines through.

That’s a perfect way to put it—each side‑quest is a mini‑training ground, and we’re the respawn points that keep them going. If we celebrate the tiny victories, the kids will see every problem as a level they can beat, not just a big boss fight. And who knows? One day those little wins might turn into real‑world power‑ups.

I love that image—kids collecting those little “loot rewards” and feeling like they’re on a treasure hunt. If we keep pointing out their progress, they’ll start to see every day as a new level and maybe one day, you’ll see that “Master Mentor” badge on their wall. Keep cheering them on; it’s the best kind of respawn.
