A step-by-step guide to play the game

1

Print the Risky Situations panel and gather a group of 4 - 10 players to start the game.

2

Ask one of the players to come forward and to choose a situation on the panel. The player will act out the chosen situation. The players try to identify the situation on the panel.

3

Once the situation is identified, ask the group if the situation is perceived as positive or negative. Write down the answers on the blackboard or a paper. (For example: fight in the apartment building). Discuss with the group if they think the environment is a safe space or an unsafe space. You can ask questions like:

  • Why is this a safe/unsafe space for you?
  • What needs to be done to turn this space into a safe space?
  • What are the risks? What are the positive aspects of this space?
4

The activity ends when every player acted out at least one situation on the panel.

Extra game information

The Risky Situations panel is a discussion game board with 137 situations, both positive/neutral and risky. The game board is divided in different areas: apartment building, city centre, factory, train station, refugee center, school, border post, beach and harbor, village and the underground (metro and mine area). 

Variations

  • Players draw the situations depicted on the panel, instead of acting them out.
  • After acting out a situation, ask the child to act out the same situation with a different outcome (positive becomes negative and vice versa).
