By Kristina Provencher, SimplyFun Playologist and Sarah Cates, Macaroni Kid Publisher Mom February 24, 2020

 Attention Fun Parents! Do you love games? Do you want to raise intelligent and even socially and emotionally intelligent children? I've found an awesome way to do both!

 I LOVE games! Now that my 3 year old is really getting interested in board games, I am excited to try new ones. It's amazing to watch our kids learn and grow so fast!

 I have recently had the opportunity to barter for some SimplyFun games from SimplyFun consultant, Kristina Provencher and love them!!! The games pieces and boxes themselves are such high quality that I actually don't have to worry about my toddlers ripping it apart. Also, the games that we got are perfect for my little guy's short attention span. The creators really know what they are doing when it comes to creating developmentally appropriate games to help them learn! Now, I'd like to introduce you to Kristina, our local Concord area mom that can equip you with fun, enriching games for your family!

MEET YOUR CONSULTANT

 Hello! I'm Kristina Provencher! I'm mom to my little lady, Emily, who is 10 & wife to Mr. EMS Director. I also teach special education full-time. 

In early 2016, while attending a friend’s party, I came across SimplyFun and clicked on the web page -I had never heard of the company or the games. 

 After watching the videos and reading the descriptions of the games,  I knew these products needed to be in our rotation of board games. They are targeting the exact skills Emily & my students are working on at school & home and they looked really fun! I knew this was an opportunity not to pass up and well, here I am. I quickly built a team across the U.S. and was promoted to Master Playologist within 5 months. As part of the leadership team, I support new Builder/Playologists as well as my growing community of customers! 

 I can't wait to connect with you and help you find the perfect games for your family!
