Space Invaders - A Game About Boundaries
An Easy To Learn Card Game

Developed by Toni Cavanagh Johnson, Ph.D.


Space Invaders – A Game About Boundaries can be played with the whole family. The goal of the game is to form healthy, safe and consistent boundaries in their home. The game is suitable for use with intact families, families with stepchildren and families with foster children. The questions are most suitable for parents and children 4-14 years of age. Easy-to-read instructions are included.


This game can also be used with specialized populations, some of which are:

Step or Foster Families Who Want Some Assistance To Have Clearly Defined Boundaries In Their Home

Reunification after Unsubstantiated Allegations of Sexual Abuse

Reunification of an Adjudicated Adult or Adolescent Sex Offender Into The Family

Families With Children With Sexual Behavior Problems

Any Family With Poor Emotional, Physical and Sexual Boundaries

A therapist is important when working with the specialized populations. Instructions are included which explain the role of the therapist and  describe how to use the game with the specialized populations.  Three peer reviewed articles related to boundaries are available to be downloaded from Dr. Johnson's web-site to assist in understanding boundaries.
