The Great Bend Recreation Commission will host a free Stop ‘N Learn Session titled “Bonding Through Board Games” from noon to 1 p.m. on Wednesday, Nov. 13, at the Great Bend Activity Center, 2715 18th St.

“Bonding Through Board Games” is a tool to strengthen family relationships using board games as a medium, said Donna Krug, Cottonwood Extension agent. Her presentation will explain how board games foster the six major qualities strong families exhibit across cultures worldwide and in all family types.

Board games are also a great way to span the generations. Vital soft skills of life success are also developed when families play board games on a regular basis.

Simple and fun games will be introduced to families inspiring them to create a family board game night of their own.
