News and views for gifted youth and their parents in Region 8 +
Upcoming Event: Sunday June 4th at 2pm – Online Gaming
Playing games can lower barriers to make new friends so let’s play some games online! We’ll start with Gartic Phone where it’s sort of like Telephone Pictionary and then, based on the number of people, we can play Spyfall or Fishbowl.
We’ll also have brief introductions to Boardgame Arena, Roblox, and Chesskids where we can play games with one another in between our Meetups. If you’re active on any of those sites and would like to join me on the demonstration, let me know!
Region 8 GY Gaming Club
Let’s keep the games going between our quarterly events! I’ll be making groups for us on the kid-safe platforms like chesskids.com, boardgamearena.com and roblox.com so if you have a username and would like to be added, please contact me. We’ll have tournaments, play Roblox games together and hang out.
