They allow children to form and voice opinions and talk about what is really on their mind. Some examples include: What is the hardest thing you had to do and why was it hard? Do you think it is a good idea to treat others the way you want to be treated and why? or What makes you a great person?
  • GREAT FOR SCHOOL AND HOME: Letz Talk Cards ask compelling questions that focus on social and emotional learning. Teachers can use Letz Talk cards as a writing prompt for student journals or essay assignments. They are also useful icebreaker tools for therapists and counselors in therapy sessions.
