25.01.2022 Being brave isn't the absence of fear, it's having that fear and finding your way through it (said Bear Grylls ). While it's not always easy to choose courage over worry, it's a choice that can become easier with practice. That's why we created The Epic Fail Game. A fun way to train your bravery muscles as a whole warrior family! #parenting #anxiety #Being brave isn't the absence of fear, it's having that fear and finding your way through it (said Bear Grylls).

22.01.2022 Hey beautiful fail community. Share if you have a family or friend you think could benefit from a bit of fun (indoor!) bonding and resilience training :)

20.01.2022 While it might be mildly terrifying to see your kid with sharp nails and heavy hammers in hand, the satisfaction and curiosity this type of play can be extra rewarding. In fact, a Norwegian study from Queen Maud University* show risky play is vital in helping kids develop their armour against phobia and fear. And who knows, you might get a classy piece of furniture or art masterpiece at the end of it all! :) Visit www.theepicfailgame.com.au to learn more about encoura...ging kids to find the fun in failing! #boardgames #resilience#kidsgames#raisingstrongkids #parenting #parenthood#parentingtips #parentinghumor #kidsfun#raisethem#simplychildren #childhood #letgrow#rewildyourchild #mindfulkids#kindnessmatters #mindfulness#mumlife #family *That study: Childrens Risky Play from an Evolutionary Perspective: The Anti-Phobic Effects of Thrilling Experiences - Ellen Sandseter and Leif Kennair

18.01.2022 Some things might take a few goes to perfect but that just makes it all the more rewarding when you get there! Theres a slow earned skill in finding the long stemmed thick daisies. And making sure your nail does not break the stem when pushing it through is hard work! You might fail at the beginning or even half way through your chain - but it will be a joy trying. Your end chain will be pretty, and imperfectly perfect, in its own way!

18.01.2022 Rolling down a hill gives you a sense of freedom with just a touch of danger! Will I roll too fast? Will I roll over something? Am I rolling in the right direction? Will I roll into my friend? And then there is the feeling when you finish rolling - with grass all over you and a dizzy head and the feeling that you have just done something risky and fun and you CHOSE it. Hill rolling is guaranteed to look goofy but can give us the best feelings of control free joy. So grab your body and hurl yourself down a slope sometime soon!

16.01.2022 Just to let you in on a secret, the Epic Failure Game is not actually about failure its about learning! But the biggest learning opportunities come from failing. You have to fall out of a tree sometimes to learn how to climb the tree better. But (sssssshhhhhhh) ultimately we want you to be the bestest, bravest tree climber ever!

15.01.2022 There are a lot of moving parts to mastering a magic trick. Ultimately its as much about watching, listening and closely reading your audience as it is about controlling your props. And who doesnt love a bit of magic! Have you checked out our kickstarter page?

15.01.2022 It was psychologist Carol Dweck who first developed the theory of growth mindset - the idea that by believing your mind is capable of growing actually makes you better at growing! So great. A big part of this virtuous loop is self belief, and something as fundamental as the words we use can make a big difference. To get started, try simply putting yet at the end of any self limiting thought you may have. With this one word you can shift even the most stubborn mindsets. Inspiring ideas like these and many more motivated us to create The Epic Fail Game! Read more about the game here www.theepicfailgame.com.au

14.01.2022 Sometimes you just need to throw yourself out of your depth, feel small and enjoy the ride .. much like were about to do in a couple of days when we hit GO on our first batch of The Epic Fail Game!

13.01.2022 The Epic Fail Game is all about redefining failure! What other meanings can you think of? Funny and Interesting Lessons.. For All Inventive Legends.. Read more about the game at www.theepicfailgame.com.au :)

13.01.2022 This one is all about experimenting (..with benefits!) The kitchen is a brilliant place to be creatively curious - and nothing is more magical than baking! The unlikely alchemy of messy raw ingredients that go in the oven as one thing and comes out another - sometimes as expected, and sometimes really not! Every kids should give it a go before theyre 12 :)

12.01.2022 A great article from one of our favourite magazines. Thanks Frankie! https://www.frankie.com.au/article/the-epic-fail-game-549743

10.01.2022 Because we are all born and will always be perfectly imperfect! Its loving and accepting our differences that will ultimately lead to the biggest smiles. Hope you had a great day epic community.

08.01.2022 There are many wonderful lessons we can learn from growing a seed. For starters, a seed must crack before it can grow just like the occasional break (or fail) can help us grow. The next great lesson is that if the plant doesnt thrive - you dont fix the plant, you fix its environment. And finally, if youre anything like me (#nogreenthumbs) sometimes you need to accept that there are some things you just cant control in life.. and be ok with that. For help learning how to embrace the unknown check out The Epic Fail Game, a fun family tool to learn through play.

08.01.2022 Wow it’s seems like an age ago when we began brainstorming fun resilience tools for kids. From there grew the idea of The Epic Fail game. We are so proud to have our second batch of boxes delivered yesterday. Thanks to all our fail friends who have been with us on this journey so far. From little things big things can definitely grow. #resilience #raisingstrongkids #parenting #parenthood #parentingtips #parentinghumor #kidsfun #raisethem #simplychildren #childhood #letgrow #rewildyourchild #kickstarter

07.01.2022 Hellloooo epic community! Yo and I have been cocooning in a little recovery mode while The Epic Fail game is being printed. Truth be told it was a bit exhausting (exhilarating, fun, inspiring ..but also exhausting) getting it to this point! And when I saw this pic come across my feed, it made me feel better - after all, its ok to get tired. Whats important is we look after ourselves and each other so we can keep pushing forward :) The print samples should be arriving any da...y now with the final boxes due mid November (fingers crossed ) and you will be receiving yours shortly after! Watch this space for more updates soon #theepicfailgame#resilience#kidsgames#raisingstrongkids #parenting #parenthood#parentingtips #parentinghumor #kidsfun#raisethem#simplychildren #childhood #letgrow#rewildyourchild #kickstarter #mindfulkids#kindnessmatters #mindfulness#mumlife #family See more

07.01.2022 A big shout out to all our fail friends. We did it - we reached our Kickstarter goal! It has been a big 2 year journey to get us here. We have done crazy amounts of research, designing, testing, prototyping (five times over) - and our game has evolved and grown so much. We are so proud of the final product and the joy and fun it will bring. There is not way we could have done it without you - our loyal fail friends and supporters. You guys are superstars.

07.01.2022 ..bubble wrap is no good for anyone. It turns out when we bubble wrap our kids it only serves to send them the message that the world is scary, and that makes them anxious. And dont even get us started on what marine animals think of bubble wrap! ps. this is Lenny, she wasnt too fussed by the bubble wrap AND thanks to all our kickstarter supporters so far - we are over 50% funded! wahoo. If you know anyone that would love our game please feel free to pass on our kickstarter... link. 15 days left to pre-order a game! https://www.kickstarter.com//the-epic-fail-game-embracing- See more

06.01.2022 Game-changing inventions; glorious artworks; startling epiphanies - are almost always born from many failed attempts. One of my favourite examples is Edisons light bulb moment built from 10,000 previous not-so-shiny moments. When questioned by a reporter about his track record, he simply replied: "The light bulb was an invention with 10,000 steps." So keep creating, moving, trying and practicing - your spark of genius could be just around the corner :) Visit www.theepicfailgame.com.au to learn more about encouraging kids to find the fun in failing! #boardgames #resilience#kidsgames#raisingstrongkids #parenting #parenthood#parentingtips #parentinghumor #kidsfun#raisethem#simplychildren #childhood #letgrow#rewildyourchild #mindfulkids#kindnessmatters #mindfulness#mumlife #family

04.01.2022 A scientific study out of Oxford University proved that juggling actually increased white matter (the stuff that connect new pathways) in your brain - who knew clowns were so smart!? Its also one of those activities that everyone is hopeless at to begin with, but a little practice and a lot of patience will guarantee improvement from even the most uncoordinated of us out there :) #kickstartercampaign #startup#crowdfundingcampaign #kickstarterproject#boardgames #resilience #kidsgames#raisingstrongkids #parenting #parenthood#parentingtips #parentinghumor #kidsfun#raisethem #simplychildren #childhood #letgrow#rewildyourchild #kickstarter #mindfulkids#kindnessmatters #mindfulness #mumlife #family
