Your Guide to Using Comic Strip Conversations

Your Guide to Using Comic Strip Conversations
A step-by-step guide to using Comic Strip Conversations to reflect on what was said, done, and thought during social situations.
 
Your Guide to Comic Strip Conversations introduces a powerful visual tool developed by Carol Gray to support children in understanding social interactions. Using simple drawings and thought/speech bubbles, this method allows adults and children to explore different perspectives, identify feelings, and discuss alternative responses. It’s especially useful after a difficult incident when the child is calm enough to reflect, and can be led by an adult or directed by the child.
 
Key Benefits:
Visual: Uses simple drawings to make abstract ideas more concrete and understandable.
Accessible: You don’t need to be an artist — stick figures are fine. It’s the discussion that matters.
Reflective: Helps children explore how others may have felt or what they might have been thinking.
Flexible: Can be used one-to-one, with or without the child drawing, depending on confidence and ability.
 
Support social reflection through simple, meaningful conversations.
