Quick Overview

Many kids, especially those with ADHD, autism, or Asperger’s, are unaware of the socially accepted physical boundaries that most of us take for granted. This game helps them learn what’s “too close,” “too far,” or “just right” in various social situations. Children take turns performing social scenarios described on Role Play Cards, and then the group decides whether their proximity to each other is appropriate for the particular situation.

Details

Players learn that standing too close or too far away can make people feel uncomfortable or confused in certain circumstances. Focused and fun, this game is a gentle way to help kids grasp the idea of personal space and thereby improve their relationships. For 4 to 8 players or teams, with a teacher or therapist.

When playing the game, children assume two roles - actors and observers.  As actors, they must use social judgement in portraying situations from the Role Play cards.  As observers, they must provide feedback to the actors inidicating if the actors physical stance is appropriate.

This game is aimed at children aged 5 to 12 years.
