EDIT: If you are looking for rpgKids, it now has a permanent webpage here.
So yesterday I pulled out the minis and tiles for another game with my 4 year old daughter. One thing immediately stood out: if you aren’t consistent with the gaming, the rules will be forgotten.
In her defense though, this is only the third time we play (and even I forgot a rule, and I designed the damn thing). I made some videos so you can see an example of a kid actually playing… that’s her and I playing, with my 2 year old screaming in his booster seat as he plays with some other minis.
The story was a simple one, her party was sent to a Wizard’s lab to recover some papers, but a group of skeletons was waiting for them to arrive… here now is rpgKids in action at the hands of a 4 year old:

There are pictures of me on my blog. Gabby will not have her picture taken any time soon though… not for my blog. 🙂

So cute… are both your kids just 4 (or even younger). I can’t imagine to play with a friend’s son who’s also 4 years old, since he won’t be too attentive for that all. But maybe when he’s 6 or so, I give it a try.
I would be interested in how you’re working with the rules 😀 Maybe you could post some basic rpgKids rules.
And: all my players constantly loose their dices on the floor and then the discussion starts if it counts or not. Basically, from a player’s POV if it’s hight, it counts, if low you can role again… 😀

Heh. Sounds like some of my sessions. Except I think our youngest player is in college. (Just kidding.) Playing with kids always serves as a reminder to me of what the game should be about: having fun and creating a good story for the characters. Nice job, thanks for posting!

Wow, I must be a mean DM even to my daughter (She is 4 also). I make her tell me what what was rolled on the dice and which one is higher. She is still having trouble with this, 10, 11, and 12 are hard for her to understand. She is still preferring to play monsters over heroes, but I think that’s her vampire-loving mother’s influence 🙂
This latest time her ‘heroes’ were:
Ribbit the frog
Chooga Chooga the Aligator
and Jafar the snake.
Just like you, my 2 year old son was playing with dice and other minis while we played.
