Today's #tbt is an awesome game hack from a while back. Get ready, because I will be using it in an amazing friendship group post I have been working hard on. Expect to see that tomorrow! I just discovered the best counselor game hack- Chutes and Ladders. First of all, this game was one of my absolute favorites ever so I still love to play. The thrill of the ladders! The defeat of the chutes!
Anyway, I have recently been using the game as a great tool for managing angry or sad feelings. Each time we go down a chute, we say something that makes us angry/sad. Each ladder is a strategy that helps us to calm down. The kids love it, I love it - win!
What game hacks do you use? I've seen the Jenga conversation starters, but I am way too much of a neat freak to write on my Jenga pieces. I might have a problem. Maybe I should go see the counselor.
