Book Description
This practical and accessible resource contains a wealth of discussion sheets and games to help victims of bullying reflect and talk about their experiences and feelings using the internationally familiar Blob figures.
Diverse and inclusive, the Blob figures are a proven way to help children and adults share their feelings and experiences. Without age, culture or gender, they enable the individual to focus on feelings and body language. In this book, the Blobs explore bullying. From Blob Trees to Bingo games, cards and emotional scales, the Blobs provide a visual structure that allows children, teenagers and adults to open up about being bullied.
Offering unique activities that help scaffold conversations for people of all ages and abilities, this is an essential resource for teachers, teaching assistants, youth and social workers, psychologists, counsellors and all those who work with and have caring responsibilities for others.
