Product Overview

Every positive and successful relationship starts with respect. Respectful Relationships is a reimagined edition of one of our most beloved resources, Mates Traits. With a fresh new look, updated wording, and 11 brand-new cards, this vibrant set uses engaging animal characters to help children recognise the qualities that make relationships strong, supportive and inclusive.

These 32 full-colour cards encourage conversations about friendship, respect, and empathy. Perfect for schools, counselling sessions, or family settings, they help children explore behaviours that strengthen bonds, recognise differences, and build confidence in navigating social challenges such as peer pressure or bullying.

Testimonials

I have a big heart for Innovative Resources and their tools because they’ve really journeyed with me as I’ve grown as a therapist

Pip Westwood, Play Therapist Masters in Child Play Therapy | Undergraduate in Psychology | Private Practice

The most common question we’re asked is how do we talk with children about grief? Innovative Resources cards are a great place to start.

Shelly Skinner, CEO of Lionheart Lionheart’s programs are designed to educate children, teens, and adults about grief and loss.

We regularly used Innovative Resources card sets for team building, debriefing and talking about hopes and pictures of the future. I love the non-prescriptive nature of the cards. They are particularly useful in learning and talking about feelings with people of all ages who are not used to putting language to their feelings.
