Found this today, Three Dragon Ante -- A D&D-themed card game a fun, fast, fantasy-based card game.

This is a fun card game for 2-6 players and showcases dragons from the D&D world. It is easy to learn and play, this game is great for everyone, from dedicated D&D gamers to poker fans to casual card players. D&D characters can also play Three Dragon Ante within the context of any D&D campaign

I am going to try it out - it is nice to take a break sometimes and play something a little less intense, but still in the D&D theme.

Once Upon A Time - StoryTelling Card Game

This looks good, ordered it to play with the family-

Once Upon A Time is a game in which the players create a story together, using cards that show typical elements from fairy tales. One player is the Storyteller, and creates a story using the ingredients on her cards. She tries to guide the plot towards her own ending. The other players try to use cards to interrupt her and become the new Storyteller. The winner is the first player to play out all her cards and end with her Happy Ever After card.

I like the fact that it has great pictures to help stimulate imagination. It also adds some structure to the play. Should be lots of fun quality time!

Playing Dungeons & Dragons and Role Playing With Your Child

16 April 2010 By LuvGamez 1

Dungeons & Dragons is a pen-and-paper (PNP) role-playing game, where players create persona's or characters using rules, dice and some imagination. Similarly the game is played this way - there is a game master that is in charge of organizing and running a game or campaign and controlling the monsters or NPC's (non-player-characters) and the players that are in charge of their own PC's or Player Characters.

The name 'Dungeons & Dragons' (D&D) is a specific set of rules for a role playing game (RPG). There are other PNP RPG's for all kinds of settings, including sci-fi, modern world and more. Some games are fairly simple, having minimal rules, minimal detail, while others can be extremely complex. D&D is in-between, it can be played using only basic rules, but is also able to scale up and you can utilize the many available books for additional rules, game features and detail.

Once the rules are understood, it can be an enjoyable experience for years to come. It is something that I thoroughly enjoy, and most kids enjoy dragons, monsters, heroes, castles and so on. They especially enjoy using their imagination to make up stories and 'play'. However, children under the age of 12, or in my case age 7, do not have the patience to learn and follow even the basic rules for a game such as this.
