In addition to being great fun, Exploding Emotions has a stellar, sensitively-executed game concept that offers richly-layered benefits to all who play. Each round begins with participants receiving 3 double-sided scenario cards apiece, a total of six scenarios per player. The designated judge then takes a card from the emotion pile and places it in the center, launching players on a quest to choose which of their scenarios best matches the feeling (grumpy, shy, excited, annoyed, among many others), a decision ultimately made by the judge. The scenarios are realistic and relatable. The emotion cards not only name a feeling but also display an illustration of a child in the throes of that emotion. By playfully exploring the extent to which each scenario relates to the feeling at hand, youngsters' self-awareness grows by leaps and bounds, as does their depth of insight into the intricacies of interpersonal dynamics.
