What educators are saying

I used this empathy game for an after-school event. I paired it with the 7 habits and the families really enjoyed it.
I am a Skills Trainer at an Elementary School and teach students SEL skills such as Emotional Regulation, Anger Management, Social Skills, ect. I have used this activity several times with students and it worked great.

Description

Practice building empathy, perspective-taking, and social problem solving with a board game! The game includes 160 scenario cards focused on real life social situations at school, at home, with friends, and during activities. After reading the cards, kids will act the out the situation, discuss what someone might be feeling or thinking, identify why it matters to understand someone's feelings, and consider how they might react in that situation.

How to Play

  • Students will roll a dice to advance on the board game.
  • The image they land on will tell them what type of scenario card to pick up.
  • As they pick up a card, they will also need to spin a spinner that tells them how to respond to the card: act it out, discuss why it matters, consider how someone might feel, what someone might be thinking, or identify what you might do.
  • The first to “finish” wins, but students can continue playing again and again!

Digital and Print!

Both printed and digital versions are included. To access the digital version, open the PDF with "digital directions" in the title. Click the link in the blue box to make a copy. The digital game includes two videos on the game board. It must be played in edit mode to allow for moving. Students will move through the game board while answering empathy questions. Click the first video to determine the number of spaces to move and the second video for the scenario card.

Encourage Making Positive Choices

As students discuss and answer the questions from the scenario cards, they will learn to make more positive social choices in real life situations. It is recommended to have some peer role-models in small groups or partners to play this to allow for positive model responses along the way.

Color and Black/White

Note that both black/white and color options are included. Blank cards are also included to make your own social situations, as needed.
