We wanted to make empathy an easily learned skill through kinesthetic, interactive, and playful activities. We also wanted to contribute to peace and harmony by supporting families to resolve conflicts joyfully and easily.
Based on a process known as Nonviolent Communication, our products make it fun and easy to learn compassion and empathy skills through play. Starting at an early age, children learn to identify their feelings and what it is they are needing/valuing as well as understanding the feelings and needs of others. Empirical studies exist that demonstrate increased empathy makes people better managers and workers, and better family members and friends. But it’s bigger than just its personal effect. We’re all in this together, and researchers say that connection and compassion are crucial to a sustainable and humane future.
Our games have sold in 75 countries around the world where people are actively engaged in learning to speak and listen in a most empathetic and caring matter. Occasionally we offer GROK Parties on Zoom to teach others how to share and spread this work.
