Conversation Jenga

I used this conversation jenga twice this past week with two different groups of kiddos with autism between the ages of 6-8. It was a huge hit and it only took me maybe 15 minutes to make! ⁣⁣

Find it on amazon.ca here and amazon.com here.

How to play:

  • Play just as you would regular jenga

  • When the children pull out a block they ask a friend or yourself the question

  • With each turn their will be switches between the roles of “asker” and “answerer”

Other goal ideas:

  • actions

Patient population:

How to:

Tip: Leave some blocks blank to have the children generate their own questions
