- ValYou The Voice of Values

Consider another example: a junior high girl who spends hours playing the piano. Though she loves her hobby, she sometimes feels torn between practicing and spending time with friends. The piano is a form of self-expression, but so is her social life. Underneath these conflicting desires, especially for kids, is often the unspoken pressure to meet parental expectations. Many of us grapple with the clash between the values instilled in us and the ones we choose to live by. The process of identifying and reconciling these conflicting values is the foundation of a new family game I’ve developed. The game, designed for kids and families, encourages players to prioritize core values in a simple and enjoyable way. It fosters open dialogue and strengthens parent-child communication. This card game is meant to spark meaningful conversations about values in a fun, relaxed atmosphere. Featuring 160 cards with a visual list of values, the game helps players unearth their most important values as they progress through the game. This game isn’t about teaching values—it’s about discovering and choosing them through non-judgmental listening and shared experience. It offers a playful yet profound way to explore personal values and how they influence daily life. As one mother shared, "The game made me really reflect on what’s truly important to me. It expanded my thinking, challenging me to consider how I act and react in different situations." So, next time you’re looking for a new family game, consider this values-based card game. It offers more than just entertainment—it provides a unique opportunity for personal growth, connection, and thoughtful reflection.
