(L-r) Jaden Pelton Phillips, Reid Muddiman, Eleanor Deckert, Noelle Muddiman and Kiah Phillips enjoy an educational game invented by Deckert based on a quilt.
Participants take turns adding a square with pictures or designs to the quilt, then give an explanation or tell a story of how it relates to one or more other squares already on the quilt.
Once the quilt is full, they give it a shake and start over. It was quite interesting to see how enthusiastic and involved the youngsters became.
Deckert’s game was just one of the attractions at the Clearwater Farmers Market on Saturday morning, June 1.
