At Therapeutic Blueprint, we are thrilled to announce our latest innovation in therapeutic tools – FAM-TASTIC!, a new board game designed to strengthen the bonds between children and their caregivers in a fun and interactive way. Our focus this month has been on the final touches and preparations for its release, and we couldn’t be more excited to share it with you!
The Vision Behind FAM-TASTIC!
Building strong, positive connections between children and their caregivers is at the heart of our mission. We understand that traditional methods of therapy and bonding can sometimes feel daunting or inaccessible, especially for children who have experienced trauma or disruption in their lives. This is where FAM-TASTIC! comes in.
What is FAM-TASTIC!?
FAM-TASTIC! is more than just a downloadable board game; it’s a therapeutic tool aimed at children with developmental trauma, with a focus on children within residential, fostering and adoption scenarios - designed to create opportunities for meaningful interaction and communication between children and their caregivers. Through a series of engaging activities and thoughtful prompts, the game encourages players to share, listen, and understand each other better.
The downloadable version enables the user to to print the game off and complete it within a space that is suitable for a child, where they feel safe and secure. Idea's for suitable spaces include the garden, bedroom, school, park or when going travelling - making FAM-TASTIC! the perfect on-the-move support tool.
