Description:

  • Help children understand how other people think, feel, and act
  • Practice reading nonverbal cues

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!

Contents: 40 Question Cards (13 Emotion Cards, 14 Talking Without Words Cards, 13 Value Cards), Instructions, 16 Choice Cards (A, B, C, D)

Educational/informative of helping others and being more self-aware....

Educational/informative of helping others and being more self-aware. More fun than I expected. My 8 year old client and I both enjoyed the impersonation cards (acting out her family member(s)). I would not recommend using this until you've had multiple sessions to know a thing or too about the other players.

I've played this game in individual therapy and also in family sessions. I really enjoy playing the game, it's fun and the acting parts keep things exciting while laughing. The only thing that is a little hard to understand is if the entire group is supposed to guess the person reading the card's answer or if everyone puts in their own answer.

either way, i've played it both. I actually like when everyone puts down their own answer card because it opens the door for discussion and sharing why we chose the answers we chose.
