Interview: Allen, Author of Whispers of the Voidbringer

I had a great chat with Allen, author of Whispers of the Voidbringer, about his experiences picking up D&D and introducing TTRPG’s to his family.

Tips and Tricks: Using Mini-Games in TTRPG’s for kids (ages 2-5)!

When playing TTRPG’s with my kid, one of the most effective ways that I found to help keep interest was to have some mini-games ready to mix things up if role-play started to get stale OR to replace dice mechanics. These mini-game ideas are fun, easy, and educational – I hope they help with your games!

TTRPGkids BOOK review: Princesses of the Pizza Parlor

Princesses of the Pizza Parlor by Maikel Yarimizu is the story of and uncle running a tabletop role playing game for his niece and her tween friends. It’s a fun tale that follows their character’s adventures in the game… and the drama between the players outside of the game as they navigate their friendships. I enjoyed the read, and I hope you and your kids do too!
