The purpose of this study was the effectiveness of play package designed to increase moral conscience, self-control and taking social responsibility of talented primary school students. The research method was quasi-experimental with pretest-posttest with control group design. The population consisted of all girl students of the fourth, fifth and sixth grade of the 3rd district of Tehran. Then, 30 talented students were randomly selected and their intelligence was confirmed through Gardner's intelligence test. Students were randomly assigned into two groups of experimental (n=16) and control (n=14) groups. The designed play package was based on the theory and books related to the play and moral intelligence of Michele Borba (2001), and was approved by five child psychologists. This package was run for the experimental group for 9 one-hour sessions. The questionnaire used in the research was the Kurdlo Responsibility Questionnaire (2010), moral Intelligence by Ali Akbari Dehkordi, Golpayegani and Mohtashemi (1394) and Gardner Multiple Intelligence.The results of data analysis showed that the play package effectively increased conscience (p=0.003), self-control (p=0.006), and taking responsibility (p=0.001). The follow-up phase was not performed in this study because of time limitation and inaccessibility of the sample.
