I’m catching my breath after a whirlwind week. First to Chicago for a week of training in the day job (with Inner Workings), a day to think of recovering, then off for another three days of family and funerals. For those keeping score at home, that’s two funerals in less than a month. They weren’t surprise funerals, but still… never fun.
But enough about me. Let’s talk about today’s Random Recommendation:
Roleplaying with Kids from Technomancer Press. It’s a collection of essays about gaming with kids. The essays cover a wide spectrum, and some delve pretty deep into the theory behind the roleplaying experience, but work together to create the first how-to book I’ve seen the the subject. The authors all have kids, and game with them, so the books is full of anecdotes and lots of “This worked for me” advice. As a gamer with an imaginative five year-old, I’m looking forward to applying some of this advice and seeing how it goes.
