Area of Effect | 9: The Educational Side of TTRPGs (feat. @TTRPGKids)

Fred Rogers once said, "Play gives children a chance to practice what they're learning." And in tabletop RPGs, we have an incredible resource to help kids learn while they play. In this episode, Steph, founder of TTRPGkids.com, walks Allison and Ryan through the "beautiful chaos" of adding STEM educational elements to TTRPG games and why any parent--even those with no STEM background!--can do it. 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!
