Een stap-voor-stap handleiding om het spel te spelen

1

Explore the poster with the players. Encourage them to identify elements from familiar fairy tales (e.g., dragons, dark forests, wicked stepmothers).

2

Explain that fairytales often include difficult situations. The goal of the game is to reflect on these difficulties and find solutions. Have a group discussion about overcoming difficulties and what can be helpful.

3

As a group, reflect on the following elements:

  • Location: How do the locations make you feel? What would you change for each location to make it a safe space?
  • Hero: Draw your own hero. What characteristics does this hero need to deal with challenges? What motivates your hero to face challenges? What past experiences have shaped your hero’s abilities? In what way does your hero inspire others? What is the hero’s greatest fear, and how do they overcome it?
4
  • Friend: What qualities make a good friend in times of difficulty? How has a friend helped you overcome a challenge in the past? What do you expect from a friend when you are dealing with challenges? Which friend can help you with that?
  • Talent: Pick one talent and discuss how this talent can be used in different situations. What new talents could you use to better face challenges?
  • Obstacle/enemy: Select an obstacle/enemy and find as many ways/alternatives to deal with this issue (problem-solving, coping strategies). What would happen if the obstacle/enemy became an ally?
5
  • Magical tools: Name all the elements you see that can help you cope with a difficulty, for example, a key to open a door to escape. What tool would you add to help the hero and why?
  • Ending: Are the depicted endings realistic? How would the story change if the ending were different?
