Support for children's social skills

Social skills affect children's happiness. Help them thrive!

The connections children make with others shape their overall development. During the ages of 7 to 9, it is important to actively support their ability to create and maintain friendships. Through games and interactive exercises, we can help children learn how to build trust, express empathy, and understand different perspectives. By creating an open and supportive environment at home, we will strengthen their social skills and prepare them for future challenges.

Imagine that you are the captain of a secret mission with your friends. How would you divide the tasks?

Select an answer:

Everyone will receive a task based on what they do best. I will choose the most difficult task, and the others can choose from the remaining ones. I will assign tasks randomly so that everyone can try something new. I would rather take everything upon myself to ensure everything is done correctly. I will ask the others what they would like to do, and we will agree based on that.

If you are at school and a classmate forgets their homework, what will you do?

I propose a change to make the game fair. I'll let him play by his rules and see if I'll enjoy it. I will refuse to play and tell him that it is unfair. I'll play it once and then suggest improvements. I will tell the others to vote on how to play.
