The fundamental skillsets of mathematics, language, history, and basic sciences will always be essential, but increasingly what is often needed in a time where machines and programs are able to perform the vast majority of the basic tasks that once required our focus is the ability for flexible, creative and resilient thinking, alongside a drive to try new and different approaches with a willingness to use failures as a jumping-off point for further experimentation and growth. 

Our experiences have taught us that children are often far more willing to confront challenging tasks that push the limits of their creativity, logic, and problem-solving abilities when they are put forward to them in the framework of a game instead of directly as a lesson.
