Hydroponica Educational Board Game (evaluation first edition) Of the first edition of 100 games, we now have 10 left. The Institute of Simplified Hydroponics is introducing a new board game to help children learn how to build and then manage their own hydroponic gardens. This game was originally developed to be used for training homeless children around the world to set up simplified hydroponic gardens to grow food for their survival and for earning income. It have been used in six countries, translated into three languages. Now the Institute is going to manufacture and market this Hydroponica game in the english speaking countries. We have printed the first 100 copies and are offering 50 of those copies on ebay for purchase and evaluation. These are the first 100 copies of the game that will be manufactured. How the game is played: There are two paths, the garden path and the grocery cart path. Players on the grocery cart path have to work for a living and pay for thier food. They have car troubles, and usually struggle to make ends meet. Players on the garden path work to set up a survival hydroponic garden. They make more and more money and life is good. There are problems on the garden path with insects, marketing nutrients and pH. The first player to complete a ten card garden wins. From the evaluation version, we will then print 2nd edition of 250 copies and then go on to mass production,provided the evaluations are successful. Hydroponica could be a very important educational toy for your children. It will introduce children to chemistry, pH and organic insect control. It also teaches the value of building a resource, saving money and making money with resoures. The game will include a copy of the Hydroponics and microfarms CD, a $19.95 value in stores.
