Loved:
My son really enjoys the D&D experience with New York Society of Play, and Marielle is an exceptional instructor. My son says that the class should get infinity stars and the instructor infinity stars times 2. The class is a fun and lighthearted way for kids to enjoy D&D safely, whether they're new or experienced players.

It was great. Both D&D leaders were energetic and good at moving with all the kids as they went on their adventure. Lots of happy kids and hopefully some newly made D&D fans.

Jett had a great time playing D&D. She’s hooked and wants to come on Thursdays to learn more about it!
Improvements:
When we arrived for drop off, it didn’t seem like the staff knew we were coming. (It was a scheduled event through our school.) They quickly printed a list and got us checked in though.
