Two to Three times a month we will be getting together for 2.5 to 3 hours to learn how to play D & D. We will learn the basics, create our characters, write out backstories, roleplay as our characters, and create a story together. As they progress, they will start to run games, also telling the story and even writing some of the adventures. The manuals will give them the information and ideas they will need to do this. The game mats, dice, and figures will help them play and track the movement of their adventure. This helps them get together with other children of like minds and will create social bonds that could last a lifetime. They learn to create, to write, to express themselves, and to do anything their imaginations can come up with. Table Top Gaming helps them become better writers, readers, actors, and most importantly how to work with others to achieve a goal.
