# Parent + Kid Minecraft Battle Event

Built by Nate, starting from a simple idea, played with kids at Recess, and now with parents!

## Parent + Kid Events

Organized by Recess Parents

Hosted by 1 expert guide

UPDATE: By popular demand, we have added a second timeslot!

In this Parent + Kid Minecraft event, you will team up and play side by side, navigating custom battle maps designed by Nate (a kid at Recess!)

Each session includes a 3-battle tournament across maps inspired by Remagen, Corregidor, and Elsenborn Ridge, where teams compete to capture objectives and win.

Players take on roles such as:

- Rifleman
- Medic
- Engineer
- Commander

Each role has a clear purpose, so teamwork, communication, and strategy matter.

- Stable internet connection

For families with multiple kids:

- Additional children are welcome to join using their own separate accounts
