EG Introduction to Gameschooling
Heard about Gameschooling? You are probably already doing it! Here’s my Introduction to Gameschooling, both Tabletop AND Video games.
Jazz Up Your TableTop: “Oom-Pah!”
Today is a very busy day. 30 April is both International Jazz Day. Unfortunately, right now we are a little limited in our ability to celebrate, party, and all that jazz. In fact, right now we are spending a lot more time inside and playing tabletop games. So I thought it […]

His teacher was rather considerate and even gave us a list of writers appearing on the day, including Liz Pichon. For those minions who do not have pre-teen spawnlings reading and doodling all over […]
