Quote from Paul Zolman:
"Through this game, we're not just teaching children to recognize and express love in various forms but also empowering them to take ownership of their emotions and actions. It's about transforming our approach from one of reacting to one of responding with intention. My hope is that by integrating these practices into daily routines, we can create a more compassionate, understanding world where every child feels valued and understood."
