IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON T-SHIRTS

With the enormous growth around the world of KidsGames, the use of T-shirts is limiting growth. The cost of providing T-shirts for many hundreds or thousands of children is enormous. It is now recommended that you don't include T-shirts to ensure the opportunity to involve more children. Some ingenious leaders have come up with alternative low cost ideas:

1. Different colored string for each team on each child's arm.
2. Inexpensive cardboard visors.
3. Inexpensive KG logo patches the children place on their own shirts.
4. Children draw KG logo and mascots on their own shirts.
