BrainSavvy looks like a board game but is actually a teaching tool. Parents can use it with children to chart the completion of tasks at home, while teachers can use it in the classroom to motivate students to study. “BrainSavvy consists of a high quality, dry erasable, magnetic game board that comes rolled in a tube and is meant to be displayed on any magnetic surface for all to see,” BrainSavvy LLC President and Co-Inventor Jamie McCracken, Ed.D., told TDmonthly. It also “comes with colorful brain shaped magnets (pawns), unique team sorting chips, special dice, a timer and a booklet of suggestions for use.” Launch date: February 2007.
