Out of Commission
Hi Everyone, I wanted to let you know I’m going to be unavailable this week. When leaving my daughters after a lovely day, I add a little accident. I’m currently in a hospital waiting for a verdict from the ortho surgeon. Turns out I broke not one but two ankles. Sigh. I’ll find out later today when surgery will happen. My ask, can you each post a fresh post for the next few days. Could be a holiday tradition, a favorite game, or something you discovered in the classroom. Prayers, positive vibes, or a good joke gratefully welcomed.

@Mary Nunaley - here's to a speedy recovery after the verdict! And... the next time we play some bball, i'll go easier on those ankles. 😁

Shall we all play along together? 😆
Mary, could you give us "one prompt that everyone must use exactly as written, without changing anything," to generate an AI image? I’d love to see how different AI tools interpret the very same prompt. To join in: 1. Post the image you generated. 2. Tell us which AI tool you used. Same prompt. Different tools. Different results. I think this could be really interesting. 😁

@Paulette Ng 👋🏿🕺🏿 You're very welcome! I believe future images on ChatGPT/Gemini, using the same prompt, will be quite similar.

Fun Events for You
Hi Everyone, I’m so excited to share several events being hosted right here in the community. On Oct 21, Chef @Andrew Brooks will be leading us in a Cook-along sharing tips to make healthy food bowls. Details in the calendar. A few days later Chef @Henry Hunter will be dropping a family fun baking lesson and we will schedule a bake-along shortly after the lesson to answer questions and share the joy. On Oct 30, I’ll be introducing a beginner RPG designed for families. Simple to play and you can learn more in the classroom #Story Quest: Become the Hero On November 7, @Paula Artis will be guiding us through a fun session using ChatGPT and craft supplies from home to create your own personalized Holiday Pop-Up book. Recommended age 8 and up (5 and up with adult help). More details in the calendar. Then @Celia Kibler and I will be co-hosting two sessions on Parenting through the Holidays. Stay tuned for dates and times. What other types of sessions or activities would you like to see? We have a very talented community and I want to see you shine.

@Mary Nunaley while looking at the image, I received the idea of an "interactive" story experience... the participants are playing in real-time. that's is all, transmission interrupted. 😆

1 Year Anniversary
One year. It's wild to say that out loud. When I started Connected Through Play, I had a simple belief: that play real, genuine, joyful play is how we actually connect. Not through perfect moments or polished highlight reels, but through showing up, trying things, laughing at the mess, and doing it all together. This past year, you've proven that belief right a thousand times over. You've shared your wins and your learning curves. You've cheered each other on. You've built something that actually *feels* like community not because we forced it, but because you chose to be here and to be real. We've learned that connection isn't complicated. It's a game night. It's a question asked without hesitation. It's someone saying "me too" when it matters. You've given that to each other, and we're grateful for it. To everyone who's been part of this, whether you've been here since day one or you just found us, thank you. This space exists because of you. Here's to another year of play, growth, and showing up together. Stick around. Bring a friend. Let's see what we build next.

Opinion Please
I’ve shared some of my coloring book pages and now, I’d love your feedback on a coloring book cover. I’ve mocked up two ideas and as a parent, grandparent, aunt/uncle, teacher, etc. I’m curious if one or the other calls to you. If you have time, and feel comfortable leaving why or why not, even better. I prefer I added one more option. Oops.
