Goal:

Getting to know each other in a fun way
Create an atmosphere conducive to exchange

Steps

  1. In circles, the children pass a ball while the music sounds.
  2. When the music stops, whoever has the ball must introduce themselves, giving information (eg name, age, origin, favorite color, number of brothers and sisters, etc.) to get to know each other.
  3. Each player can pass several times of course.

CONCRETELY :

  • Did you manage to retain all the information given by the other players?

FOR FURTHER :

  • To know someone, do you have to know everything about him? What is most important to find out?

#friendship

  • A reciprocal gift: Friendship is knowing someone and making yourself known to that same person. It requires a relationship of trust

I can only tell my friend the things that are difficult, heavy to carry, or my secrets, I only tell them to the one I trust.

  • Knowing the other: I will never know EVERYTHING about the other, about my friend. This does not prevent friendship. Friendship is not knowing everything, knowing everything, it is first of all listening, and being listened to.

It's spending time together to make new discoveries about my friend, to know his talents, also his weaknesses,...

We can ask ourselves what is the most important thing to know about a friend:

  • is he handsome / is she beautiful?
  • is he rich?
  • how is his family ?
  • what are its qualities ?

...

Eventually, we realize that the most important things in a friend are not what is material or external (his wealth, his beauty, his home), but what is internal (his qualities, his faults, his dreams) .

Top tip: also remember that your friends love you for who you are on the inside.
