Gather the group of players in front of the panel and ask them to briefly explore the image. Do they know what it is about?

Ask one of the players if he/she can explain what children's rights are? Ask additional questions like: why are children's rights important? What are the first things that come up to mind when talking about children's rights? Do you know how many children's rights there are? Make sure all the players can express themselves on what they think about children's rights.

Extra game information

The UNCRC consists of 54 articles that set out children’s rights and how governments should work together to make them available to all children. On this child-friendly poster, all the 54 articles are depicted. This poster functions as the main starting point for the All Children, All Rights package. Therefore it's highly recommended to always have this overview poster at hand when doing activities on children's rights.


All children's rights icons used on the posters are created by UNICEF for their child-friendly version of the Convention on the Rights of the Child.
