"Next Best Thing" Game   $20.00

Nbt_game

**SALE** (regularly $24.95) 

A lively game of preparation and final review for expectant parents, childbirth classes and doulas.
This Game Teaches, Reviews and Reinforces:
-The practice of embracing what is
-Assessing (not judging) the situation
-A solution-focused mindset (rather than a problem- or avoidance-focused mindset)
-Considering all possible solutions from cards held in their hands (ranging from common sense, parent-can-do solutions to what the medical model might offer)
-Finally, doing what needs to be done next...without striving for a particular outcome.

Labor and postpartum situations presented in this game are mostly ordinary and always brief; there are no happy or sad endings to any of the scenarios that would suggest that "choices" made by the players lead them to achieve a desired outcome. The situations presented are created in part by the childbirth teacher/mentor and partly by the random drawing of face-down Birth Fairy and Time cards.

The cards are printed in color on sturdy glossy card stock, 2.75" x 4.75", and fit in a black 5x7" draw-string velour bag. Each of the 141 "Next Best Thing" cards belongs to one of the following categories:
  1. Things Parents Can Do ( e.g., Drink Fluids, Walk)
  2. Medical Support (e.g., IV, Pitocin)
  3. Birth Fairy (situations that arise, e.g., Water Breaks)
  4. Time (e.g. An Hour Later)
This game was conceived of and illustrated by Pam England.     Add To Cart
