Students often resist rigorous assignments. They seem to get better at avoiding tasks each year. But we can help students succeed in challenging environments.

The popularity of escape rooms has exploded over the last 10 years, because solving puzzles collaboratively can be exhilarating. So, what happens if we apply fun, collective problem-solving and critical thinking skills to the classroom?

These stories and puzzles support critical thinking and creative problem solving in a fun, collaborative setting.
Whether as an enrichment period during the school day or as an after-school club, Silverquicken has become the favorite hour of the week for many students and teachers.
We believe in the transformative power of play and wonder. Silverquicken feels mysterious and magical, igniting sparks of creativity in young minds.
