Life does not always give you the time you would like to play and connect with your kids. That's why any free moment you might have with your little geeks is important. How you spend that time is best left to you and your little geeks. If watching movies is your thing, you might want to consider the latest Family Movie Night release for your next evening in with the fam.
I loved the original Star Trek like a hog loves mud and didn't think I could love anything more until Star Trek: The Next Generation was released. Like the Grinch, my heart grew three sizes that day. We do not speak of Star Trek Voyager or Deep Space Nine in our household. They are dead to us.
We have already shared with you a compiled list of free RPGs, lovingly collected and organized by a true fan and geek. Such dedication separates the "occasional player" from the true "enthusiast". But if RPGs are not your thing, perhaps card games are. Just so happens that another true geek enthusiast has compiled a list of free card games created by some very inventive people.
At our household, we wage epic battles against germs, bacteria, and all the other nastiness that comes from living our lives to the fullest. As a father, I do all I can to protect, educate, and love my children. As a geek, I try to find better and more entertaining ways to do all three. When you find that special something that allows you to do so, you run with it and never look back!
With all the excitement, buzz, product support, and fandom currently being generated by George R. R. Martin's books and absolutely fantastic characters, it should come as no surprise that some very creative fellow geeks are showing their appreciation in their own special way.
Sharing is hard and a difficult lesson to teach little geeks. But what happens when big geeks forget the very lessons they are trying to teach? Am I just a big kid or do I have legit beef and my feelings are justifiable? According to my wife, "kinda". Clearly, there is an issue to solve here, including my own. Luckily, for every issue there is a solution, and in regards to my iPhone, I found one.
