Family Game Night, Reinvented – Veloria Junior
"Our Friday game nights used to be about board games and snacks, but Veloria Junior changed everything. My 8-year-old, who’s usually glued to her tablet, couldn’t wait to answer prompts during Imagination Time. She opened up about her feelings in ways I’d never heard before. We laughed at her silly ideas, learned more about what was going on in her world, and even discovered some brave moments she’d never shared. Veloria Junior gave us connection disguised as play — and now, my kids request it over video games every time."
Strengthening Our Team Culture – Veloria in the Workplace
"As a team leader, I’ve been searching for ways to strengthen our team culture beyond our usual meetings. I brought Veloria to our Friday lunch break, and it became an instant hit. People opened up about life experiences, goals, and challenges — things you don’t usually hear around the office. Those conversations built empathy and trust, and within weeks, our team collaboration improved noticeably. Veloria is now part of our onboarding process for new hires to help them feel welcome from day one."
From Laughter to Lifelong Friendship – Veloria at a Networking Event
"I attended a local networking mixer last month where someone brought out Veloria. I expected the usual small talk, but instead, the prompts sparked laughter and deep conversations. We went from exchanging business cards to sharing personal dreams and challenges. By the end of the night, I’d made three meaningful connections that felt genuine. Veloria turned what could have been an awkward evening into a night of authentic connection, and it transformed the way I approach networking. I now bring the game to every professional gathering I attend."
Healing Conversations After Loss – Veloria with Friends
"After my best friend’s father passed away, our group struggled to find the right words. We brought out Veloria one evening, not expecting much, but the questions allowed us to open up without forcing the conversation. We shared our own stories of loss, moments of resilience, and what keeps us going. There was laughter mixed with tears, and by the end, we felt more connected than ever. Veloria gave us a safe space for healing conversations we didn’t know we needed."
A Classroom Breakthrough – Veloria Educator’s Edition
"I teach 6th grade, and one of my biggest challenges is helping students build social-emotional skills while staying engaged. The Veloria Educator’s Edition has been a game-changer. The SEL-based prompts encourage students to share feelings, listen actively, and think about how to support one another. One quiet student, who rarely participated, shared a story that led to a round of applause from classmates. The pride on her face was priceless. Veloria isn’t just a game — it’s a tool for emotional learning, empathy, and classroom connection."
From a Girl Scout Troop Leader on a Camp Weekend
"There’s something magical about a circle of Girl Scouts under the stars—until the marshmallows run out and the giggles turn into “now what?” That’s when I pulled out Veloria Junior. Suddenly, instead of telling the same ghost stories, we were diving into silly & fun prompts, talking about our bravest moments, and imagining the wildest camping adventures that hadn’t even happened yet. The girls connected in a way I hadn’t seen before—sharing feelings, laughing until they tipped over on their sleeping bags, and building friendships that felt stronger than the campfire smoke. Laughter and deep conversations? Check. Connection through play? Absolutely. And I’ve got 12 troop moms already asking me where they can get the game."
From a Parent of an Autistic Child
Life with our son, Leo, who is on the autism spectrum, is an incredible journey filled with unique joys and sometimes, unique challenges. One of the things I cherish most is his beautiful perspective on the world, but sometimes, understanding his inner landscape, especially his feelings, can feel like trying to read a book in a language I don't quite speak. We’ve tried many things to connect, but then we found Veloria Educator's Edition. And honestly, it’s become our family’s little secret weapon.
Leo has always been a literal-minded thinker, and direct questions about "how he feels" often lead to a blank stare. But Veloria's prompts are different. One evening, we were playing, and a card asked, "If your feeling were a type of weather, what would it be?" Leo, usually so quiet about his emotions, thought for a long moment. Then he said, "When I'm frustrated, it's like tiny hail hitting a window, really fast. And when I'm happy, it's like a warm, soft cloud."
My heart swelled. He wasn't just telling me he was frustrated; he was showing me, in a way that made perfect sense to him and suddenly, to me too. The "Stimming" cards have also been amazing. He’s explained that flapping his hands feels like "releasing happy energy," helping me understand that it’s not a habit to be stopped, but a vital part of his self-expression and regulation.
The statistics affirm what we've felt in our home: children with strong emotional regulation skills show greater resilience and adaptability in daily life. Moreover, improved parent-child communication has been linked to better overall well-being in children with ASD. Veloria has provided a framework for those conversations. It’s helped us understand his sensory needs, his love for routine, and his incredible imagination.
Playing Veloria isn't just about emotional regulation; it's about connection. It’s about building a shared language of understanding. We laugh, we learn, and we see each other more clearly. For any parent navigating the beautiful complexities of raising an autistic child, this game isn't just a tool; it's an invitation to deepen your bond, celebrate their uniqueness, and truly know the incredible person they are. It’s made our family stronger, more empathetic, and infinitely more connected.
