Play the “Similarity Game”

Children are always looking for differences in each other. “Camden is shorter.” “Kendra is chubby.” “Kiersten gets in trouble all the time.” Jackson is mean.” The list goes on and on. Instead, have children do activities in which they look for their similarities. Have them think of all the things they have in common. The more they find in common, the better they will get along. This is a great thing to do, not only within the classroom but, for parents to do at home with their children. It is a great way to help children be more harmonious with each other.

Have a great day. You are a difference maker.
