Play-2-Learn Dominoes - Friendship Game

Kids love to play dominoes and Play-2-Learn Dominoes put the fun of playing dominoes to work helping kids learn important skills. Designed by Franklin D. Rubenstein, Ph.D. for elementary students who have fun playing dominoes while learning how to make new friends, be a good friend, and resolve conflicts in a win-win way. Players will learn to deal successfully with the inevitable problems that arise between friends. Players will be asked to give examples of positive interactions with friends from their own experience. This game allows players an opportunity to discuss how they would handle initial peer interaction situations. Before playing a domino, a player picks a card from one of four decks and either answers a question or practices a skill. The Ups and Downs cards help players deal successfully with the inevitable problems that arise between friends. The Four Ws cards deal with challenging friendship situations; each question starts with Who, What, Why, or When. The Having Fun cards ask players to give examples of positive interactions with friends from their own experience.
