Episode notes
Choose Visual Board Games
- Try visual, imagination-based board games like Dixit and Mysterium to include dyslexic children.
- These games avoid heavy reading and rely on images and creative clues that level the playing field.
Inclusion Through Visual Play
- Visual and imagination-driven mechanics reduce reliance on decoding text and increase inclusion.
- Games that produce laughter and shared experience matter more than strict rules or winners.
Adapt Charades Casually
- Play loose, casual charades variants to avoid reading or syllable rules that can exclude dyslexic kids.
- Use teams, helpers, or pre-written prompts so reading doesn't block participation.
