Kid's Room Activities

Seattle

Friday 2:00 PM - 6:00 PM
Saturday 9:00 AM - 6:00 PM
Sunday 9:00 AM - 6:00 PM

TThe Kids Room is a place where youthful exuberance can find an outlet within the confines of the Convention. We strive to create a safe and engaging space where children of all ages can come together and play. Each child must have a Convention Badge, either as a gamer or an In-Tow.

We have plenty of games available for folks to choose from (but the games must stay in the Kids Room since it is a private collection, not owned by the Con). You are always welcome to bring your own game(s) to the room, and there will be scheduled games and other activities planned throughout the weekend. Anyone of any age is welcome in the room, but be prepared to play games with our youngest gamers!

Parents, your pre-teen children are welcome in the Kids Room, but we want to remind you that the Kids Room is not a babysitting service, and we will not take responsibility for overseeing your child while you are gaming elsewhere. Children under the age of 6 must be accompanied by an adult at all times. We have a sign-in/sign-out policy for any child who is staying in the Kids Room without an adult. When your child first comes to the Kids Room, they must be accompanied by a responsible adult to sign them in and provide contact information where we can reach you during the Con. Children who are signed-in will not be allowed to leave until they are signed-out and accompanied by an authorized adult.

The Kids Room staff will take them to the bathroom and get water when needed. We will contact you if there are any questions or problems. It is expected that you will provide adequate food and rest for your child throughout the Con, since a lack of either can make them cranky and unmanageable and we want everyone to have a pleasant time at the convention.

Children in the Kids Room are still expected to follow the rules of the Con and are subject to the same penalties and restrictions as any adult. They should be wearing their Convention badge whenever they are in the Kids Room.

All games and events are walk-up games, so no need to sign up for them, just show up. All ages are welcome, but preference will be given to our younger players.

Other kid-friendly games can be found outside of the Kids Room hours in the regular gaming areas.

We have the following events back this year

Figure Painting Lessons – Saturday 11:30am-1pm and Sunday 12pm-2pm. Come learn painting techniques from one of our painting gurus. All supplies are provided, including figures to practice on.

Monster Smash – Saturday 3pm-5pm and Sunday 2pm-4pm, 8 players max. All ages are welcome, but preference will be given to our younger players.

Legos will make their appearance again this year. We will have a whole table dedicated to Lego building.

As always we will have coloring and drawing, with prizes awarded each day at 5:30. Each winner will be able to pick which prize they wish.

What times are these that even the youngest apprentices must abandon their training and join what few experienced adventurers who remain to face unknown dangers & confront the hordes of monsters now threatening the world Shizarky is a simplified adaptation of AD&D for experienced role-players who want to introduce their pre-teen family members to fantasy roleplaying. It emphasizes conversational interactive storytelling over strict rules to engage young adventurers? imaginations. Gameplay is kept fast and lithe by the GM to keep the momentum going. Rules can be (and are) scaled upwards as the youngest players become ready for more advanced concepts (e.g. as they learn necessary real- world skills such as arithmetic). Stats are simplified, as is the magic system. This is a simplified game of optimized to engage pre-teens & their family members of any age. Players are introduced to established D&D lore, characters, monsters, items, places, incorporating the Dungeons & Dragons Young Adventurer?s Guides Series ,

I would do this task myself, but am injured and can not make the trip. Will you aid me, adventurers?
