Hey, parents -- you already have a lot on your plate. Vroom is here to help you capitalize on the moments you’re already spending together! Try this the next time you’re out for a walk with your kiddo.

Pick a spot ahead of you and ask your child to predict how many steps it will take to get there. Then have them test this out. Encourage them to change the way they move, like running or jumping to the same spot. How do those changes affect the prediction?

What’s the Brainy Background? 🧠 Your child is thinking like a scientist by making predictions and testing them against what actually happens. This game also develops the skill of critical thinking and helps them explore math ideas, like distance and counting. 💡✨
