The Original Stomp Rocket. JENGA In small groups (3-5) they play JENGA using the standard rules. The only change is that every block has a number. They also have a paper numbered 1-54 with vocabulary or phrases. Since JENGA has 54 tiles, I find it works best for review. I don’t want them translating, so I ask them to say three phrases about whichever one they pull. The drinking game variant of Jenga requires a bit of creativity and a lot of alcohol. Jenga as a drinking game is perfect as a party game. The Jenga rules remain the same, but individual stones are labeled. If you drag one of these labeled stones, you must perform the action associated with the label. Yes, that is Jenga! Goal in the game, the highest tower before the transfer is to achieve. The game will lose by the transfer tower. From the bottom to the top of the tower and pull the column is placed in a balanced manner. Will become more difficult and exciting as the game will increase.

When you think of the game Jenga, does your hands start to get sweaty and you feel a bit jumpy and nervous? For me, Jenga has a way of bringing out my anxieties rather than containing them — which actually makes it a great game to play with your kids or in therapy.

Next time you play Jenga, have each player answer one of the following questions each time they pull out a block and successfully places it on the top of the stack.

– Name one of the things you’re nervous or worried about.

– What do you do when you’re worried?

– Tell about a time when you were worried or nervous, and what happened?

Uno

– Name one of your remedies or solutions for feeling nervous or worried?

– Name one thing that happens to your body physically when you get nervous or worried. (i.e. sweating, shaking, etc)

Jenga

The main purpose of playing Jenga this way is to create discussion, encourage authenticity and transparency, and to normalize feelings of worry and anxiety. So, the point of this game is not to be “Mr or Ms. Fix-It.” Create an open and safe environment by listening, empathizing, and walking in the person who is sharing’s shoes.

DON’T GIVE ADVICE.Even if your child or the client asks for advice, take the opportunity to encourage their problem solving skills rather than your own. By doing this, you are empowering them and building their self-esteem and confidence.

Parents, you’d be surprised how your children will react when you share about a time when you were nervous or worried. Showing your kids, especially adolescents, that you don’t have it all together will actually build respect, not tear it down. Therapists, this activity is great for building rapport — just remember to prepare in advance and consider transference or counter-transference issues.

Lastly, when the Jenga tower collapses, remind everyone that even though the tower has collapsed, we are still standing; we have survived.

Have fun! Enjoy!
