Join Gina Simm as she guides children through a hands-on empathy activity using feelings and needs cards to explore a relatable situation involving trust, privacy, and a shared secret. Through an empathy guessing process, they explore how another person might feel and what needs might be important to them. The activity helps children build skills in identifying feelings, understanding needs, listening to others, and considering different perspectives. It offers a playful, hands-on introduction to empathy and connection.
