Family Conversation Cards
Social-emotional character development starts at home.
Let’s be honest…there doesn’t seem to be time for much more than basic survival between squinting at our alarm clock in the morning and slipping into our comfy clothes before bed.
At Friendzy we want to make it easy to build healthy relationships and meaningful connections- not only for schools but for families, too!
That’s why we created these conversation cards. Not only are they fun, but they will facilitate connection and the growth of relationship skills.
Here are ideas on where to use conversation cards:
Before family movie night
During a weekly family meeting
As part of a bedtime routine
During the commute to or from school or after-school activities
Finally, here are some conversation card best practices:
Keep it fun!
Don’t force the conversation
Allow family members to take turns being the facilitator
Note the key ideas on the top of each card- these can be conversation starters in and of themselves. Example: What does this quote mean in your own words? Do you agree with this quote?
