Hooked On Friendship: Go-Fish Card Game
Players Learn the Skills Needed to be a Good Friend
Hooked on FRIENDSHIP is designed to help children learn friendship skills while having fun. The framework of the game will teach players how to make friends, how to be a good friend and how to resolve conflict with peers. The scenario cards cover basic lessons on fairness, kindness, respect and understanding. The scenarios draw from daily interactions that take place during school, after-school activities, in the neighborhood, and at home.
The game plays like classic Go Fish. There are two decks of 50 cards - one for children ages 4 to 8 years old and the other for children ages 8 to 11 years old. It differs from classic Go Fish in that players must answer a question before they can accept a requested card. All questions are open-ended.
Learning Objectives
Players will understand:
1. how to recognize their own feelings
2. how to express feelings verbally in a mature way
3. how to identify feelings in others
4. how to handle difficult situations that involve strong or negative feelings
A rules sheet and facilitator guidelines are included.
Ages: 5 to 11 (Grades K thru 5)
Games take about 20 minutes to play
2-5 players
