Board gaming continues to soar in popularity, and it is essential to recognize the benefits it brings to youth and the general public. As parents, educators, and individuals, we should embrace the joy of board gaming, encouraging its incorporation into our lives to enjoy the cognitive, social, and emotional benefits it bestows. That’s why we’ve made it our mission as the Great Plains Gaming Project. So, gather around the table, roll the dice, and embark on a journey of fun, learning, and meaningful connections with the wonderful world of board gaming.
