I absolutely LOVE this Inside Out board game. It is so well designed that the kids get excited when they see it. I had to do some tweaking to make it work for counseling. I simply colored in the circles to match the colors of the "islands".
Here is what I came up with:
Red - Friendship
Orange - Goofball
Purple - Imagination Land
Yellow - Family
Blue - Sports
Green - Honesty
I simply used the game as designed, but each space required the children to talk about how that island either fits the or doesn't fit them. If it wasn't a fit for their personality, they had they told about what would fit them better. This game gave a great platform for discussing core values.
This game also makes a great segue for another great therapy session - having them draw their own islands! I'm looking forward to going there with some of my more artistic kids that I see.
