[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Odyssey of the Mind. Complete waste of time. DC's team did absolutely nothing to prepare and goofed off; the parent coaches were absolutely awful and didn't encourage them, preferring to use the kids as free babysitting for their younger children, since prep was done in the coach's home. I'm sure some kids get something out of it, but our experience was off-putting.[/quote] My kid just signed up for this I don’t really get what it is. It sounds dumb.[/quote] It's a good program-if you have the right coaches. The kids are in teams and have to solve brainteasers as well as a bigger problem which they will solve at compeition by performing a skit. It really depends on if the parent coaches and kids are good. My DD did it for a bit but the team wasn't great and just wasn't the right fit for her.[/quote]
