CurioSeedDebate topics for kids, ages 5–12
Every question on the path, in the words a child reads: a story, the question it leaves open, and the reasons either side might give. Take one to the dinner table — or open it here, where Quill argues the other side and a room of 20 says which reason moved it.
The Cost
What earns a point: Names the thing given up by choosing the other side.
The Rule
What earns a point: Names someone the rule lands on who isn't in the room.
The Proof
What earns a point: Asks where a claim came from, or says “I'm not sure yet”.
The Promise

The Mirror
What earns a point: Gives a reason that isn't about winning.
