Area of Effect | 15: Should Students Play D&D At School? (feat. Lucas Maxwell)

What if our schools could be places that helped kids not only learn how to read, write, and become good citizens, but also how to work together in community? In this week's episode, Allison interviews Lucas Maxwell, librarian and author in London about his experience of bringing D&D and TTRPGs into his school's library--and how kids have been flourishing ever since. Welcome to Area of Effect, a podcast from the creators of The Kids Table, where we discuss how tabletop RPGs benefit kids and answer your questions about playing TTRPGs with the kids at your table! About us: When kids are at the table, everyone wins! Playing TTRPGs with kids helps develop critical thinking, creativity, communication, collaboration, & confidence - while building connections around the table. That's why we offer an original, kid-inclusive Dungeons & Dragons show, advice for playing D&D with kids, and our own campaigns to help you play TTRPGs with the kids at your own table!
