Create some cards

Create some question cards for the players with the following questions:

  • "Who do you turn to when you feel sad?"
  • "Who helps you with your homework?"
  • "Who do you engage in physical activities with?"
  • "Who provides you with practical help, like finances or housing?"
  • "Who provides you with the most practical advice?"
  • "Who do you share your happiest moments with?"
  • "Who encourages you to pursue your hobbies and interests?"

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

1

Give each player a large piece of paper or poster board, markers, pens, coloured pencils, and sticky notes or small cards.

2

Have players draw themselves at the center of their paper.

3

Ask players to think of key individuals who support them and write each person’s name on a sticky note or card. They can also draw their support figures. The Support Network Poster can serve as inspiration.

4

Now it’s time to place these notes around the image they drew of themselves, leaving space between each card.

5

Players take turns drawing question cards and answering questions about their support network.

6

After answering each question, players draw lines (using string or yarn) from their central node to the corresponding support person. They can also use pencils to draw the lines.

7

Players can use different coloured markers or strings to indicate the frequency and type of contact, creating a more detailed map. For example, a green line is for someone who is supporting every week and an orange line is for someone who once a year offers some help.

8

Players take turns sharing their social maps with the group, explaining the different connections and types of support they receive. Encourage players to share stories about how their support network has helped them in various situations but be mindful of sensitivities and never oblige anyone to share if they don’t want to.

9

To finish the activity, you can ask players to think about areas where they might need more support and how they can strengthen or expand their social network. Have players write down one or two goals for enhancing their support network and share these goals with the group.

Extra informatie over het spel

  • Creating a social map is a crucial trauma-informed activity for children, helping them visualize and understand their support networks. This activity enhances emotional literacy, communication, and trust by encouraging children to identify and articulate the roles of supportive individuals in their lives. It empowers them with a sense of control and safety, which is particularly important for those who have experienced trauma and facilitates healing by reinforcing the presence of reliable support systems.
