Kan. students on break teach seniors Wii games

0
By KMAN Staff on March 22, 2012 State News

WICHITA, Kan. (AP) Wichita area students have been using their spring break to help others and that includes teaching senior citizens how to play video games.

Students volunteered this week at the Andover Senior Center, where they helped residents master a Wii video game that mimics bowling. The center bought the video game system with a grant from the Butler County Department on Aging.

Students from Maize, Goddard, Derby, Rose Hill and Wichita are making the trek to Andover this week to help out with the Wii training and spring cleaning at the senior center.

The Wichita Eagle reports that nearly 300 area students are volunteering this spring break at 33 nonprofit organizations, and that they’ve also been helping out at a food pantry and at a shelter.
