🖼️ Photos

Add pictures of people, pets or things. Each photo takes its file's name (ava.jpg becomes "Ava") and appears in every game. Photos stay on this device and are not in share links.

    Tip: start a name with an emoji, like 🍕 Pizza, for a picture without a photo.

      Ways to use this list

      • Compliment circle in class: pick a pupil with the classroom picker, draw a compliment for them, and keep going until everyone has one.
      • Lunchbox notes: draw one each morning and copy it onto a sticky note for your child to find at lunch.
      • Team meetings: before the agenda, draw a card from For colleagues and give it to whoever it fits best, with a real example.
      • Kindness week: every pupil draws a compliment, writes it on a card for a classmate, and adds one sentence on why it fits them.
      • Family dinner game: each person draws a compliment and gives it to someone at the table, saying when they saw it happen.

      Press Draw a card, tap the game or press the Space bar. Change the list in the box as you like: add your own, delete what doesn't suit you, or write *2 after an entry to give it double the chance. The game buttons switch the same list to a wheel, duck race, hat and more.

      Questions people ask

      What makes a compliment feel genuine?

      Being specific. "You explain things really clearly" means more when you add "like when you helped me with fractions". Praise for effort, kindness and choices also lands better than praise for looks, because it's about what someone does.

      Why are there no compliments about looks?

      Compliments about kindness, ideas and effort suit every setting, from classrooms to offices, and nobody feels left out by them. They also tend to mean more, because people chose those things. Add your own if your group likes them.

      How should I respond when someone compliments me?

      A simple "thank you" is enough; there's no need to argue or play it down. If it feels natural, add a few words, such as "that's kind of you to notice", and let it make your day.

      How can teachers give compliments without anyone feeling left out?

      Put the class list in the picker: No repeats until everyone is picked is on from the start, so every pupil gets a turn. Keep the compliments about effort and kindness, which every child can earn honestly.
