How to Play The Digital Mindfulness Connect Game

Taking turns, players/teams choose a number based on the spot they would like to place their pawn. Then answer the corresponding mindfulness question/prompt. Move game pawn to cover the number just answered. Players continue to take turns answering questions/prompts and moving their pawn pieces until the first player/team has completed a vertical, horizontal, or diagonal line of either 4 or 5 in a row.

How to Play The Printable Mindfulness Card Game

In the spirit of other popular shedding-type card games, the player to get rid of all their cards first by wins. Players try to “match” the top card in the discard pile, by either laying down the same number, color (or shape, if using the black & white set), or type of action card. If the card contains a question or prompt about mindfulness, that player shares their response. The player may choose to decline responding by using 1 of their 2 Pass Tickets. Actions cards add fun twists and turns to the game. Actions include:

  •  TAKE 3: The next person in line must take 3 cards before taking their turn.
  • ROTATE RIGHT / ROTATE LEFT: All players pass on, or “rotate,” their cards to either the left or right, so that everyone exchanges hands with each other.
  • GO AGAIN: Player gets to “go again,” gaining an additional turn.
  • FREE!: Player who discards a FREE card is “free” to choose a new color (or shape) for the discard pile and then discard an additional card based on the color (or shape) they changed it to.
  • FREE + SPY!: Player who discards a FREE+SPY card can spy on one player by peeking at their cards and then is “free” to choose a new color (or shape) for the discard pile and then discard an additional card based on the color (or shape) they changed it to.

WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING

All of my students love UNO, so these UNO-like card games have been a gold-mine of a find for me! Thank you so much! I’ve used the mindfulness deck in individual sessions and I’ve used the cards individually as prompts to practice skills and introduce mindfulness concept.

These are great resources to use with students while talking about social-emotional issues. It allows the students to open up without feeling like they are being put in the spotlight because they can play a game while doing so. I have purchased several of these and the students enjoy them.

Such a great way to review what we’ve learned about mindfulness in class! The kids love it and my 4th graders can play independently in small groups!
