2/2 Dutch education.

Lot of teachers with students with big problems like depressions and finding it difficult to find their way in life.

Great to hear how these teachers use games as a distraction from the biggest sadness and as way to connect.

1/2 Big education fair in The Netherlands last week. I was there one day demonstrating games and talking about executive skills (is that the correct English word?)

Had a lot of inspiring conversations with teachers. Also a lot of emotional conversations, because there is a lot going on in ..

In the Dutch news today: freestyle chess is getting populair.

Love it! Like that surprise and a bit of pace is what people are looking for in a game. 😁

A much needed game to get to know the feminine side of history

I think this will be the year that deck building becomes less common in new games, and we see the resurfacing of something else as a favorite mechanism. Dexterity will rise, too. #gamestrodamus

I work in a SEN school which has a high population of autistic students. The practice of social skills are incredibly important and games (of all different types) give students a safe space to collaborate, compete, interact, and have fun together.

Had a chat with a teacher who didn’t know HABA as a brand. So decided to add a new page to my website: publishers of educational games. Only HABA yet, which one should I add? pen-en-pion.nl/en/brands/

An addictively fun game with a touch of number understanding and a good dose of planning - Pen en Pion
Learn to plan better in eight rounds of this game. Faraway is quick to learn, so played but a real brainteaser.

I was invited to a group that meets once a month and has a game day: playing boardgames from 11.00-23.00, diner included. What a great idea!! In my head I now would be able to play at least 20 games 😁 but ended up playing 4. Which was very reasonable, because 3 of them were new to me.

Learned four new games today. A good weekend
