Junior Learning Social Skills Board Games, 4 Games, Ages 5-8, Empathy & Manners, Grade 1-2

As a homeschool mama raising bright, big-hearted kids, social skills aren’t something I take for granted — they’re something we practice. And this little game has become one of my favorite tools for teaching connection in a world that sometimes forgets how to slow down and listen. We use it during our weekly “Life School” time, and it always sparks laughter, curiosity, and deeper understanding. Each card opens up a real conversation — not just about what to say, but how to listen, how to take turns, and how to show empathy. It’s especially wonderful for neurodivergent kiddos or anyone who benefits from clear, compassionate social guidance. The best part? It doesn’t feel like “therapy” or “training.” It feels like a family moment — full of silliness, honesty, and growth

Must have for counselors starting out. You get such a bang for you buck with this set of games. The games are straight forward and cover multiple topics. The topics covered are empathy, emotions, manners and friendship. The kids love to play them. The games are well made and have lasted me for years.

Love the concept but the instructions weren't clear, we've tried it several different ways and I still don't think we're playing it correctly because the instructions actually don't make sense. Also some of the answers are repetitive especially if you have more than two players. It DID spark some great conversations with my grandkids though and they did learn from it. If there had just been better instructions it would've probably been five stars

Great game to use with littles!

Super basic in terms of materials. But the game and skills were fun to do. We liked acting out the different emotions on one and the empathy one fit well with our lesson on perspective taking. We didn’t play the other two yet. I got it to work with my special needs teen as well as my preschool and lower elementary kids.

As a therapist, my kids love this game! 4 games in one and we play them several times. It’s a great teaching tool. Would definitely recommend.
