Un guide étape par étape pour jouer le jeu

1

Start by discussing what fairy tales are and how they often mirror real-life challenges and obstacles. Explain that the poster depicts how people can be affected by difficult experiences, similar to characters in fairy tales.

2

Show the players the poster and encourage them to identify elements from familiar fairy tales (e.g., dragons, dark forests, wicked stepmothers). Discuss how these elements make them feel and relate to their own experiences.

3

Now it's time to introduce the bookmark which you can find on the poster. The bookmark serves as a tool for constructing fairy tales. Explain that players will use the bookmark to select elements such as the setting, hero, friend, talent, obstacle/enemy, magical tools and an end for their stories. Using the colours of the bookmark can help them identify the elements on the poster. Of course, there is also the option to invent your own character or to use an element of a different category.

4

Have each of the players construct their own fairy tale by choosing one element from each category. If they want, they can write down or draw their story. When they have finished, they can tell their story to each other.

5

Conclude the game with a group discussion on how storytelling and creativity can be healing. Reflect on the importance of discussing challenges and finding ways to feel better, like the characters in their fairy tales.
