Bright Spots Thoughts and Feelings: A Sentence Completion Card Game Card Games

My daughter had speech therapy for 2 years and we stopped because it was getting too expensive. So we decided to invest in both sets of these thoughts and feeling cards and it has really helped her continue her speech sessions at home. My 4 year old is a visual learner. She has a difficult time remembering auditory speech. But when something is written with words and pictures, she has a near photographic memory. So these cards are perfect for her. It forces her to think about these questions and using the pictures as guides it makes her use her speech to construct sentences and phrases. Sounds really basic but there's something about flash colorful flash cards that really captures a child's attention. I plan on using these in the junior high classroom environment too. The tweens always gets a kick out of these basic children's cards.

I am a therapist and work with a lot of children. This game and easy and engaging. It has a variety of uses and kids respond to it. I find a lot of "therapy" games and items are usually too complicated for kids and they lose interest quickly. I like this game because kids can be playing with toys and other items like legos while they can answer these questions. It is helpful for kids that are less engaged in therapy. Love it!

Used it as a play time and to build on relationships within family 1. Cards have fun pictures appealing for ages 2 plus 2. clear short sentences with easy but interesting questions for all family members in my family 3. After playing it once we all found out so much interesting about each other I’m grateful I’ve found these ones and we will continue using them during our fun converse nights.

T&F cards arrived exactly as described in the discription. Cards are durable, colorful, providing just enough direction for a child to create insightful response. Excellent addition to my play therapy interventions. Mobile and adjustable for directed therapy. Interesting that I would find these cards on Amazon when I was attempting to create my own interventions. At this quality and value, I hardly need another sentence completion tool.

I really like these cards. I am an MFT intern and am constantly (pleasantly) surprised by how effective these cards are with adolescents, as well as with younger clients. Because of their somewhat childish appearance, I thought these cards wouldn't go over well with teens, but this is the most popular tool I use when working with adolescents at an acute behavioral health hospital. I also work with preadolescents at a community mental health clinic, and my clients there love these cards, too. These cards get conversation started and serve as an excellent way to create rapport in both group and individual settings. June 2022 Okay, I'm an LMFT in private practice now, and I'm still using the heck out of these cards. I use these with kids and parents, with teens and parents, and with couples. The illustrations appeal across age stages, and the question prompts get people talking! Definitely one of the most-used and most effective tools in my office.

We have these to help our 4 year old feel comfortable expressing himself. He lives in two homes (50/50) and we believe these are a great tool. It’s okay to miss and it’s okay to feel multiple emotions at once! Sometimes we take out the death card. We play our own game where you can answer or ask someone- I think this helps with not pressuring anyone (kids) into talking about something they don’t want to.

Worth it have simple ways to have meaningful conversation with my 6yo who is highly intelligent and highly verbal, but struggles with expressing more intense emotions like anger and frustration. It helps us help our small human to process and express their bigger emotions. She even requests to have "table talk" with these cards. Some prompts are also quite eye opening like, " I wish my family would stop...". By listening to our little one for prompts like this really helps us to build a sense of respect for feelings allowing us to build more useful discipline practices and more in tune redirection during those overwhelming emotional moments. These oversized cards are not meant for play time, but rather for family time. They are a little more sturdy than a regular deck cards, which should be plenty strong to last repeated use with supervision.

As a school psychologist in an elementary school I am always looking for games to open conversation with my students. This game is great to play with other regular board games. For example, I sometimes play this with Chutes and Ladders. Every time the student lands on a chute or a ladder, they have to choose a card from the pile and finish the sentence. I use it with students from 1st to 5th grades. It's a great game to use in a therapy setting that all my students enjoy. My own daughter also asks to play this game again and again.

This a playful way to be able to the sentence completion test. Children and parents enjoy it and provides lots of material for discussion.
