What educators are saying

This was a great way to start introducing conversations about developing stronger self esteem and how we can be kinder to ourselves. Used within therapy to support emotional regulation learning and developing relationships.
I use this game during small social skills groups. My students love it and request it frequently. This game has sparked some great conversations during group and helps identify areas students may need to work on.

How to Play The Digital Self-Esteem Connect Game

Taking turns, players/teams choose a number based on the spot they would like to place their pawn. Then answer the corresponding question/prompt. Move game pawn to cover the number just answered. Players continue to take turns answering questions/prompts and moving their pawn pieces until the first player/team has completed a vertical, horizontal, or diagonal line of either 4 or 5 in a row.

How to Play The Printable Self-Esteem Card Game

In the spirit of other popular shedding-type card games, the player to get rid of all their cards first by wins. Players try to "match" the top card in the discard pile, by either laying down the same number, color (or shape, if using the black & white set), or type of action card. If the card contains a question or prompt, that player shares their response. The player may choose to decline responding by using 1 of their 2 Pass Tickets. Actions cards add fun twists and turns to the game. Actions include:

TAKE 3: The next person in line must take 3 cards before taking their turn.

ROTATE RIGHT / ROTATE LEFT: All players pass on, or "rotate," their cards to either the left or right, so that everyone exchanges hands with each other.

GO AGAIN: Player gets to "go again," gaining an additional turn.

FREE!: Player who discards a FREE card is "free" to choose a new color (or shape) for the discard pile and then discard an additional card based on the color (or shape) they changed it to.

FREE + SPY!: Player who discards a FREE+SPY card can spy on one player by peeking at their cards and then is "free" to choose a new color (or shape) for the discard pile and then discard an additional card based on the color (or shape) they changed it to.

Why Is Self-Esteem Important?

Building self-esteem helps young people to cultivate a strong internal locus of control & sense of agency and lay a foundation from which to create an empowered life. The questions and prompts in the Self-Esteem Card Game encourage players to express their unique voices and perceptions, with a primary focus on strengths, social supports, coping skills and other protective factors.
