Wizards aiming younger audience

[nedjer]

Where has this idea been for the past thirty-five years? I think you've been holding out on us. Spill.

I will spill Just snowed under at work right now. We've all been kind of kept waiting on this one for years, as some of the key research has only been published quite recently.

Just a small point of clarification here.

Monster Slayers isn’t aimed at 6 year olds. It’s aimed at gamer parents of elementary school aged kids, for intended use by their kids.

Before getting started on family gaming it's maybe worth picking up on the above.

In my opinion, before taking part in imaginative play a parent or carer wants to make a clear decision along these lines:

I refuse to make access to imaginative play conditional upon playing the game the way I think it should be played. That's my fun, not our fun.

I designed a D&D adventure for kids ages 6+, based on what I learned running games for kids at local gaming stores. Check it out, and please let me know what you think!

Nice job! This idea

You can also use candy, allowing the players to eat a piece of candy for each hit point of damage their heroes deal.

could get my 7 yo daughter interested.
