Very simple but cool quartet game about things that make children happy! The card deck of 16 cards is ready in a second, and allows youth workers to use a playful game methodology to discuss serious topics. The ranking of the 4 cards is a very good idea. Fun guaranteed, thanks for sharing team PWC!
