Learning that happens deep inside each of us during group activities.

1. Joy from celebration is connected to what and how groups do things together. LA celebrations are designed to include the most opportunity for everyone to participate. It is about turning the practice of celebration into a culture of joy.

2. Children have a natural draw to play. LA educates with an expressive-arts-game-theory-culture approach to life challenges. LA games practice life lessons using our mental, physical, and social-emotional abilities.
