A cooperative board game that teaches day-to-day social skills and social awareness. Designed to help children become socially aware of the world they live in, as they build the social skills they need in everyday life: helping, sharing, being polite, cooperating, understanding different points of views, listening, following rules, acting assertively, and being a friend. Players work as a team, there are no individual winners.

Created by Lawrence E. Shapiro, Ph.D. This card game is designed to simulate a standard 52-card deck - with a twist! Instead of numbered cards there are 13 different children and instead of the four traditional suits there are four social skills areas - Having Fun, Inviting a Friend, Talking, and Solving a Problem. As children play the game, they make up stories that demonstrate social awareness using the 13 different character cards. The instructions suggest four ways to play, but these entertaining cards can be used in dozens of other creative ways.
