Why you should play video games with your kids | Hannah Boquet | TEDxSioux Falls

In a world full of digital-native youth, parents often feel their children slipping away into online spaces they don’t understand. But what if we met them there? When Hannah finally caved to the constant pressure from her children to play Fortnite with them, she discovered more than just a game—she found a new way to connect. Esports offer an inclusive, engaging platform where kids develop problem-solving, leadership, and communication skills. This talk explores the power of gaming to strengthen family bonds, support youth development, and even prepare them for future careers. Join Hannah in redefining quality time—one victory royale at a time.

Dipping just a toe in has never been Hannah’s life strategy, so it came as no surprise when she started her career in marketing over 15 years ago it was with a deep dive into entrepreneurship. Now, as the Marketing Manager at a tech communications company, Hannah harnesses her passion for learning and connection in a multitude of ways including as an organizer of Sioux Falls, South Dakota's first free, all ages, community-wide esports competition, SoDak Circuit. This adventure all began with the insistence of her kids to play Fortnite with them. As it turns out, she loves to connect with her kids in the wild and wonderful world of esports. Beyond playing video games with her three incredible sons, you can find Hannah cycling, rock climbing, baking and foraging.
