Just say 'No!'

We created this game following a request from a parent when her daughter was struggling to stand up to her friends. Its aims are to get children to articulate why they don't want to do something and give their reasons clearly and with strength.

If you play at home, you can perhaps pick out a situation pertinent to your child. You play Child A and your child should play Child B.

Child A is trying to persuade Child B to do something which is naughty - e.g. steal something from another child. Child B has to explain why they don't want to do it whilst Child A tries to pressurise them into doing so.

This should lead to a conversation which should continue until Child A backs down.
