Everybody’s Different: The Appearance Game aims to help children understand that differences in appearance are normal and there’s more to who we are than just how we look. The game uses discussion-based questions, as well as activities to explore thoughts and feelings around body image, appearance and differences.
Playing the game creates a relaxed environment where children feel comfortable to discuss issues explored within the game, such as:
- Body confidence and positive body image
- Visible differences (disfigurement)
- Diversity
- 'Body talk'
- Appearance-related bullying
- Appearance ideals in the media
- Putting appearance into perspective
Audience
Suitable for children aged 9 and above.
The Appearance Game can be used in schools, groups/clubs, at home or for health promotion.
Suitable for PSHCE/Health & Wellbeing lessons around body image and diversity.
