- You dread asking your child to turn off a screen because it usually ends in yelling, tears, or total shutdown.

Meet the speaker
Velma Gentzsch
Velma had played Super Mario Brothers —as a 5th-grader at the neighbor’s house—before she entered the world of video games with her 8-year-old son.
Much to her surprise, she discovered gaming could bring her son closer instead of creating conflict and driving them apart. She even learned to love video games. She got to relax, play, make mistakes, learn, and have fun. Now, Velma is on a mission to help you find out how you can bring more fun and cooperation to your family through video games.
Velma is a Certified Hand in Hand Instructor and former Executive Director of Hand in Hand.
