“I’m a school counselor and I used this card game with a student who is shy and won’t talk when we meet one-on-one. We used this game and my student was engaged and talked the whole time. He read the questions out loud and answered every one without even using a pass card! Thank you for a fun and easy to use resource!”

Modeled after classic shedding-style card games, the goal is to discard all your cards first. Players match the top card in the discard pile by number, color, or symbol. If the card includes a social skills prompt, the player answers before continuing. Pass Tickets allow each player to skip up to two prompts, keeping the game comfortable for everyone.
.
Take 3: The next player must draw three cards before their turn.
Rotate Right / Rotate Left: All players pass their hands in the chosen direction.
Go Again: The player immediately takes another turn.
Free!: The player chooses a new color (or shape) and discards an extra card.
Free + Spy!: The player peeks at another player’s hand, then chooses a new color (or shape) and discards an extra card.
.
Players or teams take turns choosing a number on the board.
Each number corresponds to a social skills question or prompt.
After answering, they cover that number with their pawn.
The first to complete a vertical, horizontal, or diagonal line of four or five wins.

The Social Skills Card Game is a powerful tool for teaching communication, empathy, and relationship-building. Whether in a classroom, therapy session, or at home, it makes social-emotional learning engaging, interactive, and fun.
