Tabletop Family Bonding Programme

I will be conducting a family bonding programme at Nan Chiau High School tomorrow morning and this is my personal favourite as I would be sharing my passion for board games with other families.

I love board games since I was a child. When I was in NZ, I discovered a whole new world of German board games which are not mainstream games like Monopoly or Scrabble. German board games require more strategy thinking and less luck is involved. There is something special about board games, something unique. They have the power to fascinate, to charm and to educate you. Albert Einstein once said "Games are the most elevated form of investigation." When you play board games, all your intelligence and attention are focused into solving the problems of the game. Playing keeps you creative and it makes you learn.

I love spending time with my children playing board games. Children loves to play and as adults we don't play enough. When we play board games with our children, we are allowing ourselves to be on the same level playing field as our children, and children will tend to open up more and share with us more when they feel relaxed and calm.

It is my sincere hope that more families will come together to play board games and have a great fun and laughter bonding together through games.

If you are interested to find out more about playing board games and would like to introduce to your family, your work, your school or your community please feel free to contact me at 92388060. I will be happy to run a workshop to introduce you to this wonderful world of German board games.
