Stinkin' Thinkin' Matching Game + Poster (Printable)
Stinkin’ Thinkin’ Matching Game is designed to help clients learn all about cognitive distortions! In this download, you will find kid-friendly definitions and examples of the following common distortions:
1. Labeling
2. Mental Filtering (Remember-the-Bad Thinking)
3. Mind Reading
4. Personalizing (My Fault Thinking)
5. Always Being Right (Gotta-Be-Right Thinking)
6. Catastrophizing (Big Deal Thinking)
7. Discounting the Positives (Forgetting-the-Good Thinking)
8. Shoulds
9. Minimizing (Small Deal Thinking)
10. Emotional Reasoning (Feelings-are-Facts Thinking)
11. Blaming (Your Fault Thinking)
12. Fortune Telling (Future Telling)
13. Black-or-White Thinking
14. Overgeneralizing (Always-ing)
Once the cards are printed, Stinkin’ Thinkin’ is played like a traditional matching game where all 28 cards are turned over and players take turns searching for a match. They will be identifying a card containing a distortion and its definition and will be trying to match it with its example. Through gameplay, clients will be learning how to define and differentiate between each cognitive distortion and will be challenged to identify alternative, positive ways of thinking.
Also included in this download is an 8.5x11 poster including all of the patterns and definitions.
