Here's a deck of cards that teaches children how to
manage their anger. Using two internal dialog
techniques--Thought Stopping and Self-Talk--kids can
stop anger in its tracks. By simply playing cards, they
learn to envision a stop sign whenever their anger is
triggered and to replace their angry thoughts with more
positive responses.
The deck includes 37 pairs of cards, and each pair
includes a "situation" card and a corresponding
"response" card. As youngsters react to hypothetical
situations that might normally trigger anger, they see a
big red stop sign on each response card--a cue to stop
the angry thought and come up with a better alternative.
You can use Stop That Angry Thought to play either of
two familiar card games, Concentration or Go Fish.
