The Wants Card

Same thing, two feelings.

Keep this on the fridge and use it whenever two people feel different about the same thing: “What did you want? What did they want?” Both feelings are okay — the want is what makes them different. Print it and it’s yours.

It starts to rain outside. Jem: Sad  ·  Pia: Excited
A grown-up says it’s bedtime. Jem: Angry  ·  Pia: Calm
A big friendly dog bounds over. Jem: Happy  ·  Pia: Scared
The tall block tower wobbles and falls. Jem: Sad  ·  Pia: Proud
Grandpa arrives for a surprise visit. Jem: Sleepy  ·  Pia: Excited
A friend wins the running game. Jem: Angry  ·  Pia: Happy

There’s no “right” feeling here — just two friends who wanted different things. WantTots is for wondering, not testing, and nothing is saved.
