Do you love the Inside Out movies as much as we do? Disney and Pixar truly captured all the emotions we feel as people and put them into spectacular movies! We have loved the opportunities it's given us to talk about emotions with our kids, plus have great family time watching the movies together.
We have created a fun Inside Out Party Game for you to play with your family! This game is kind of like "Truth or Dare?" but with an emotional twist! It is easy to play and suitable for all ages. In fact, it's so easy, you can even print it out and play it in the car on your way to Disneyland!
Playing Our Free Inside Out Party Game
To start, download the playing cards below. You want to print the cards double-sided. Print out the front first, then put the front page back through the printer to print out the back. We used cardstock for a studier card, and you may want to laminate them if your family loves it like ours does!
Each emotion has a set of cards in the game with associated questions to go on the back.
Cut the cards out. Lay them out on the table with each character in a separate stack.
You will need a few bags of Skittles. Buy a combination of the Original and the Wild Berry flavors, so you have a Skittle to match each emotion's coordinating color.
To play, have the players take turns picking a Skittle from the bowl. Make sure their eyes are closed so they can't see the colors. The Skittle color designates what card that player draws from the table. For instance, if they choose a red Skittle, then the player draws a red Anger card.
Have the player do the action outlined on the card. They are all unique and have something to do with the emotion character on the card. For example, the Joy cards have fun and silly things on the back and the Fear cards have spooky or scary actions and questions on them. All of the cards are silly and fun! After the player has finished his or her turn, they get to eat the Skittle and place the completed card in their own personal stack.
The play ends when all of the cards have been drawn. For a fast version, you can end the game when one player collects all five Emotion Cards, or has five of the same Emotion Cards in his or her completed pile.
There are some pink Skittles in the batch that are used as a WILD. If the player draws a pink Skittle, they get to choose any emotion card that they want for that turn. We hope you have a Joyful time playing this Inside Out Party Game!

Hi Mica,
We are so glad you have been able to use these cards in therapy! Thanks for adjusting them to fit your practice best.

We have loved to use these to discuss emotions with our clients during therapy! However, we have removed two of the cards "Smell someone's feet" and "Turn your shirt around backwards", as these are not appropriate for a therapeutic setting. Thank you for making this!
