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 an easy, educational empathy game that’s fun and engaging, especially with kids/teens and in therapy or group settings. The acting/impersonation cards are a highlight and can spark discussion. Some found the rules a bit unclear, and one reviewer said it’s less fun in pairs; another suggests using it after you know players well.
