My 7 year old is part of Mensa and there is an annual gathering coming up ( our first one ) . We would have to travel from CA to Indianapolis. I was wondering if anyone here had experience with their "Spark" program at the conference. Is it worth to travel across the country for her to experience it ?
Thanks

On a broader note - do you find Mensa valuable for your 7 year old? I'd considered it for my 4.yo. son but wasn't sure if we'd make use of it.
I was invited as a guest to an AG once many years ago. I was in my mid-20s, and everyone else was at least twice my age. I'd be very interested to know if the dynamics have changed. My DD has also inquired about them.
My daughter just joint a couple months ago. Some cities have coordinators just 4-12 years olds. They plan playdates, meetings , game nights etc... but we haven't participated it yet. The website has funs games and a kids newsletter. I ll let you know if we find another benefit .
They have a separate area just for 4-12 years olds during the conference. It's call "Spark".

Thanks, I'll check it out.
