In this episode, we explore how tabletop role-playing games (RPGs) can become powerful tools in your homeschool. From boosting creative writing and problem-solving skills to strengthening teamwork, communication, and critical thinking, RPGs offer far more than imaginative fun. We’ll share how to choose age-appropriate systems, weave campaigns into your lessons, and support kids of all personalities, from shy storytellers to bold adventurers. Join us as we talk about bringing collaborative storytelling, character creation, and world-building into your homeschool in meaningful, educational, and joy-filled ways.
