Susan, the ads are so smart! I liked Nr 1 most - especially about the parents in jail.
And the task itself - super!!!

When talking to people who don't know what thinking approach is, I have often used this task as an example. It's funny and creative and it has endless possibilities of going around the loop of the three steps! Good job, Susan! :)

Hauska ja motivoiva tehtävä! Ja myös vaatii miettimistä, miten toimita päin vastoin kuin odotetaan.
