101 More Life Skills Games for Children by Bernie Badegruber
As children become teenagers their social and emotional needs change and guiding them becomes more challenging. The high rate of social change has also made it important for schools to find ways to teach a core vocabulary of social skills to an ever more diverse population of pre-teens and teens. 101 MORE LIFE SKILLS GAMES FOR CHILDREN provides a collection of activities that responds to these challenges. Drawing on almost 30 years of teaching experience, the author has created games based on cooperation and competition between young people and their social attitudes and perceptions. Educationalists, parents and therapists can use these games to help children deal with the problems and questions of adolescence. The games tackle issues such as learning patience, self-confidence, love and respect in fun and creative ways. They also teach children how to deal with aggression, have good boundaries and to be fair. Questions help the group reflect on the issues addressed in the game. An explanation of the difference between play therapy and game pedagogy - using games with children - sets up the actual games which are clearly described accessible and illustrated with lively drawings.
