Glad to hear more people are thinking about rationality in reference to school age kids. Catch their brains while they’re young. While you’re at it—why not develop a game that teaches them to think clearly?
And ermm...Hi.
Mao might be the best bet for getting started with a lot of kids—it’s already a popular game.
For that matter, Twenty Questions might be a good place to start.
There are some interesting claims of increased IQ at the WWF n Proof site—I don’t know how well founded they are, but the game implies the possibility of a similar game based on Bayesian logic.

Inventing new games isn’t a bad idea, but there are already a bunch that would be worth promoting.
Eleusis), Zendo), Penultima, and Mao are all games of inductive reasoning. And a list of games with concealed rules, some of them suitable for this project, and some of them just silly.

Thanks for the list Nancy, I will check them out. BTW your Zendo link points to Eleusis.
Corrected. Thanks.
Quick meta aside: if you have a URL with parentheses, you have to put a backslash (“\”) before each close-paren.
It comes up a lot with Wikipedia URLs, or I’d just send a message.
Thank you. Corrected.
Thanks for that list of games.
I’d be happy to collaborate on that type of game!
