My board game: A dream came true!

🌟 A dream 7.5 years in the making just came true! 🌟

When my niece was still little, I created a board game for her—something fun, playful, and a bit of a brain teaser. A friend encouraged me to submit it to a publisher. I thought, “Why not?” and even brought it to a board game designers' convention.

That’s where something amazing happened: Kosmos, one of Germany’s well-known board game publishers, showed interest! 🎲

Then the world paused. The pandemic delayed testing the game with kindergartners—but the wait was worth every minute. Because on May 15th, the game was officially published!

To keep the surprise, I didn’t tell my nieces or their parents anything. And finally, after all these years, I got to hand them the finished game. Seeing her and her little sister's faces was magical! 💛

The game is called "Meine Freundin Conni – Kunterbunter Knobelspaß", which is all about logical thinking and spatial reasoning. Up to four kids aged 4+ can puzzle their way through playful challenges with Conni and her cat Mau. Beautifully illustrated, smart, and fun—it's a gift that helps little ones learn while they play.

I will continue dreaming, I will continue creating. You never know where your ideas might take you and what positive difference they will make. ✨
