Description
Empathy skills have been shown to play a key role in the development of prosocial behavior in children. Yet many people (from children through adults) struggle to successfully interpret the emotional states of others. How can we help each other to develop a better understanding of what different emotions are, what they feel like, and how to interpret them? Here’s where our game can help.
Emoji-cize is a fast-paced card game designed to promote empathy and a deeper understanding of different emotions. The game encourages players to develop self-awareness about their own emotions, often drawing on personal experience to enact them. Players also develop empathy by learning to recognize emotions in the facial expression and body language of another person.
Emoji-cize is a flexible game that can be adapted for a variety of age groups and ability levels, with adjustable round times and the possibility of expansion packs that can extend the utility and reach of the game, as well as increase its replay value. In light of the recognized importance of empathetic skills and the game’s low cost to benefit ratio, Emoji-cize is very relevant to today’s needs, and also offers a great deal of potential. It encourages players to stretch emotionally and is also a lot of fun!
