Customer Rating: 

This book is a really useful book for fun classroom guidance ideas. I am currently an intern in an elementary school and I have been using some of the games for my guidance lessons. The students really enjoyed playing the games and have learned important lessons! Even my supervisor (the school's school counselor) has incorporated some of the ideas into her lessons!

Customer Rating: 

This book has been a fantastic resource! I started using it the day I got it! The games are great and each one has a letter to send home to parents that informs them about the topic for that day. The letter also encourages parents to discuss what they learned.

I love how the book is divided up by age group and then by topic. It's very user friendly. My students have loved the games and ask, "When can we play that again?"

If you are an elementary school counselor, buy this book immediately! You will love it!

Customer Rating: 

Great Book and Great Information. The only drawback is to use many of these activities, in my opinion, a significant amount of prep time is required. With that said, I would still recommend this tool especially for elementary school counselors.

There are so many ideas in here! I have used some with 1st, 3rd, and 5th grade so far. . . the kids have had a lot of fun!
