02/01 - CHAIN REACTION - FAMILY ACTIVITY
Discover Your Happiness - Chain Reaction Family Activity!
Have you ever noticed that when someone around you laughs, it’s hard not to join in? Emotions are contagious—when we feel happy, it spreads to the people around us. In this activity, families play a game called Chain Reaction, where one family member at a time draws a piece of paper with an action written on it. They perform that action with the goal of getting the other members of the family to mirror the emotion behind that action.
