This activity is a part of the StreetSmart sexuality package. The package aims to give youth workers the tools they need to address the topic of sexuality in a playful way with the children and young people they work with, so they can learn to make conscious, healthy and respectful decisions.
Sexuality is a very broad term, encompassing various subtopics. Here, you can find a list of all activities included in our sexuality package to address these different topics:
- Sexuality in general: The Sex Alphabet, The Sexuality Goose Game, Yes or No Circle, Sexuality Statement Game
- Body (development): Anatomy fundamentals, Who has what?, Physical changes in puberty, Emotional changes in puberty, Life Cycle
- Boundaries: Stop!, People to People, Kiss the Teddy Bear, Body Carrousel, (Not) Okay?, Body Twister
- Relationships: Choose Your Relationship, My Ideal Partner, In The Worst Way Possible
- Gender & sexual orientation: Labels, Sex Change, Who does what?
- Safe sex: The Synonym Game, Condom Smugglers, Goodie Bag, STD-Roulette, Can I get pregnant?
- Sex & media: Who is responsible?
Variations
- Circle (adapted version of a game created by Sensoa): Form a circle. Throw the ball to one of the players and ask one of the "What is the worst way possible..." questions. The player answers and throws the ball back. You can ask the same question to various players. After 2 or 3 rounds with different questions, throw the ball to one of the players again and ask a question. Now, that player needs to come up with a question him-/herself and throw the ball to one of the other players to answer. In his/her turn, that player then comes up with a new question etc.
- Topic: You can easily adapt this game to address a specific subtopic of sexuality (e.g. gender, safe sex,...) by changing the questions.
- Age: You can easily adapt this game to be suitable for all ages by changing the questions.
