I am VERY excited to see DanDMadeEasy, who has been sharing materials with local TTRPG school groups for some time now, launching on Kickstarter! These spell tomes are great for helping keep track of everything for your games at any age, and they can particularly help with kids and new players! In addition, Dan from DanDMadeEasy is offering a part of the funds raised to TTRPGkids to help support more resources for kid-focused TTRPGs, and I am VERY greatful.
Paris Gondo – The Life Saving Magic of Inventorying is a wonderful twist on the trope of inventory management in tabletop RPGs. It builds everything – your stats, your individual and group success, and even your character’s life fulfillment – out of the loot that you choose to carry with you.
This article is to help give some ideas for all-ages-friendly festival challenges to include in your TTRPGs! Festivals are great plot devices for having a special holiday game, adding to the culture of your fantasy world, or just because, and there’s a ton of options for creating festivals that are exciting, engaging, and fun for any age and player.

This article has a whole bunch of ideas and examples for creating environmental challenges to try out in your games! I receive a lot of questions or comments about how to give more action-packed but non-violent encounters for young players, and environmental challenges are one of my favorite go-tos.
Tabletop Role-Playing Therapy by Dr. Megan Connell is a guide for clinicians looking to use TTRPGs with their clients. As a layperson, this was also an amazing exploration into why our regular, non-guided sessions and campaigns can feel therapeutic, and it has deepened my perspective on what TTRPGs can be – I hope you find it as engaging as I have!
