Flip That Thought! — 3-Game Bundle

Adult + Teen + Kids Editions | Printable CBT Card Games

Three editions. One bundle.

Bring age-adapted thought exploration into your sessions with the Adult, Teen and Kids editions of Flip That Thought! This printable CBT card-game bundle gives you three distinct resources, with different illustrations, situations and practice supports for each audience.

Participants work with an everyday situation, explore a possible thought and feeling, check what they know and what they may be assuming, consider a more balanced or helpful perspective, and choose a fitting next step. Cards make the process concrete: read a situation, talk through a thought, use a question to investigate it, then put a possible response into words.

The editions offer examples and prompts to explore together. A perspective should be believable and fit the situation; it does not have to turn a real problem into a positive story.

WHAT YOU GET

Three printable PDF games:

1. FLIP THAT THOUGHT! — ADULT EDITION

A practical CBT card game designed primarily for therapist-led individual and group sessions with adults 18+.

Explore real-life situations, automatic thoughts, balanced perspectives, thinking patterns, evidence questions, feelings, helpful next steps and Switch It Up variations. Use the five-step method—Catch it, Name it, Check it, Flip it, Choose it—with the play mat, worked example, facilitator guidance and practice sheets.

This edition includes 59 pages, 212 authored cards and 12 custom blanks. Its situation, thought and perspective decks contain 40 matched example sets. A next step might involve practical help, a boundary, rest or acceptance as well as action.

2. FLIP THAT THOUGHT! — TEEN EDITION

An illustrated resource with teen-focused situations involving school, friendships, belonging, social media and family life.

Includes real-life situation cards, automatic thoughts, balanced thoughts, thinking-trap prompts, evidence checks, feeling and intensity cards, helpful action cards and thought-flip challenges. Play modes, custom-card templates and worksheets support thought investigation, evidence sorting, next-step planning and reflection.

Use the same situation to explore what a thought assumes, what else could fit the facts and which next response the participant could try.

3. FLIP THAT THOUGHT! — KIDS EDITION

A playful introduction to exploring thoughts through colourful Thought Creatures and a Thought Detective approach.

Includes situation cards, tricky thoughts, feeling cards, Thought Detective question cards, helpful flip cards, helpful action cards and power-up challenges. The illustrated instructions guide children through Spot it, Feel it, Check it, Flip it and Try it.

Children can investigate a fictional situation, name a feeling, ask a detective question, consider a kind and believable thought, and choose a helpful action with adult support.

ONE COLLECTION, THREE DIFFERENT STYLES

• Adult: loose ink sketches and muted watercolours.
• Teen: expressive manga-style illustrations and purple accents.
• Kids: colourful characters, Thought Creatures and playful prompts.

Choose the edition that fits the person and session. Each game has its own instructions and materials; the decks are not presented as interchangeable.

WHO IS IT FOR?

Therapists, counsellors and other mental health professionals seeking printable CBT activities for work with adults, teens and children. Use the resources with appropriate support and adapt participation to the individual. The Adult edition also supports independent practice after a demonstration and an agreed support plan.

These are supplementary practice resources, not diagnostic or crisis assessment tools. Examples are starting points for discussion, not answer keys or guarantees of an emotional or clinical outcome. Participants do not need to disclose personal experiences to explore a fictional scenario.
