Developed by Lawrence E. Shapiro, Ph.D. Children who understand how other people think and feel act more appropriately and enjoy richer social relationships. This card game helps players recognize the importance of empathy, a central component of emotional intelligence.
As children try to read other players' nonverbal cues and guess how they've responded to Question Cards, they practice this skill in a fun way. Compassion, understanding, and acceptance - all in one game!

Customers call this a wonderful, fun, easy-to-use empathy game for therapy with kids, teens, and even adults. The acting/impersonation cards are especially engaging and can spark discussion and self-awareness in individuals, families, or groups. Some found the rules a bit unclear and suggested using it after you know the players; one noted it’s better in a group than in pairs.
