Every child gets a tshirt and every child gets a medal – because every child is a winner.

Every leader is trained and has a current Blue Card.

KidsGames will operate in 140 countries in 2007.

KidsGames week ends with a ‘Closing Ceremony’ at your local venue. Parents are invited to attend to see their child receive their medal as well as experience some of what happened during the week.

KidsGames teams range in size from 10 to 150 children.
