Children's Room

Learn about tabletop roleplaying games like D&D! Check out the new Monster Manual, work on designing a character, or ask Olly some questions if you're curious!

This is a drop-in time for kids who already play D&D at MHL to meet up, talk D&D with other kids, ask Olly questions, try some character-building activities, and get a look at the updated Monster Manual! Kids and caregivers who are curious about Dungeons & Dragons and would like to learn more in a casual setting are invited to drop in, and Olly will help answer any questions you might have about how kids play at MHL or what exactly a tabletop roleplaying game is!
