Fred Rogers Center - Mad Dash
Fall 2010
Mad Dash is an initiative with the Fred Roger Center to foster a connection between young children and the media, encouraging a healthy and active lifestyle. The team at the ETC is working with Fred Rogers Fellows Mary Gillis and Julie Polvinen to create Mad Dash, a game where children will engage in active play that helps them foster a connection with nature. The game is a take on the popular "Mad Libs", but instead of filling the blanks with verbs and nouns, they are filled with pictures of the child performing the actions that will help tell a story the parent and child can share together.
