Welcome to TTRPGkids!

Tabletop role-playing games (TTRPGs) have many benefits to children (learning social and leadership skills, practicing math, gaining confidence in a safe place, making friends, family bonding… just to name a few) in addition to them just being fun.

My goal is to help you find the resources and tools that you need, all in one place, to make you tabletop RPGs accessible, fun, and educational for your particular kid or class.

This site covers everything from indie tabletop RPGs to D&D recommendations, tips and tricks, podcasts, reviews, creator interviews, crafts, and more so you can jump in and have fun playing these awesome games with your kids or make a wonderful game to share with the world!
