Ryuu - Social Skills Game - has anyone used this?

Post Reply New Topic

My son's teacher emailed me today and said they are going to start using this during social skills.
It looks really cool and something my son would be interested in. I was wondering if anyone has used it?

Yes! We use these and all three of my boys love, love, love them. This week I just ordered another 2 sets. They are collecting and trading them just like their Pokemon cards. My son chooses a card to earn for behavior support when he reaches his point goal. For my guys, these are brilliant. I just told their school counselor about them and will be sending in a deck for her to consider.

I have 3 boys, 10, 10 and 8. They are making up their own games COOPERATIVELY and just like the Pokemon cards, can recite the attributes of each card. What was so 'game changing' about these cards was that I'm playing a game with my kids and conversations are emerging based on the card attributes. We're talking about real-life scenarios and situations and examples It has helped take away the anguish of talking about something my son has hated to talk about in the past. It's about the cards, not him. Very cool response.

They were a great fit for our family and hope it will be for yours, too.

Wow- this looks like it could be really cool. I just ordered the set to play with my Son. I'm actually excited! He was never huge into Pokemon or Yu-Gi-Oh but was always interested. This would be a nice start with a meaningful result.

Thanks for the info!
