"It unlocked a part of my brain I didn't know I had". I've felt this way about games like D&D since I started playing in 8th grade.

They're born with this amazing capacity to imagine incredible things, all we as parents have to do is manage not to kill that off. Telling stories together and playing games together are two of the best things.
