Kids games about fairness

So how do we teach fairness to young children? Practice Turn-taking. This is a good starting point for the especially young. Through playing games like peek-a-boo and building with blocks you lay one, I lay one , parents are able to provide a basic understanding of taking turns which is an element of fairness.

For older children, use games as an opportunity to model and explain why we play by a given set of rules, how we take turns, and how we encourage one another even when we are unhappy with an outcome. Notice Fair and Unfair. Draw attention to behaviors in books, movies, and in life when others are acting in a fair or unfair manner.

Play, "Honey, I Love You," a game where players must resist smiling or laughing, even with their friends. Players form a circle, with one person in the middle, who asks anyone else as comically as possible, "Honey, do you love me?

Encourage sharing on a large scale to drive home issues of fairness, suggests AskDrSears. Give a child a few crackers, flowers, toys or art supplies, and ask her to share them equally with everyone in the room.
