WAGiLabs… where kids and their ideas grow to change the world!”
(What A Great Idea! Labs) is a nonprofit, social innovation incubator for kids’ ideas. Our goal is to empower kids, ages 8-11, to unleash their curiosity and chase their dreams one great idea at a time.
Our mission is to provide funding, resources, mentorship, and a collaborative community for kids around the world to help them develop and implement their socially innovative ideas and make a positive impact on the world.
Our global WagiLabs are unified by playing through the Wagi PlayBook, which is a series of activities to help kids cultivate an entrepreneurial mindset through experience, empowerment, and excitement. Each kid discovers the “WagI Ways” through our three phases of play: Curiosity, Courage, and Connection.
Curiosity
• Matching kids’ passions with social challenges in community and around the world
• Experiencing empathy from walking in the shoes of others
• Discovering ideas to fill identified social needs
Courage
• Turning ideas into actions that will do good
• Selling ideas to build a team and get investment
• Building a prototype solution and learning through trial and error
• Experiencing persistence in the effort and building resilience to change
Connection
• Meeting those in need and those that can help
• Creating and sustaining functional teams
• Establishing communities of social kidpreneurs
• Playing it forward
WagiLabs are like treehouses that grow anywhere with fertile minds, nourishing activities, hard work, and abundant sunshine. Every domestic WagiLab is linked with an international lab. We share empathy by having the kids walk in other kids’ shoes.
Our labs are mixed-breeds: part-laboratory, part-makerspace and all playground for discovery. The best thing about these labs is that they can be created wherever the kids are: at a school, on a bus, in a tent, in a tree; we’re up for the challenge.
