Help children talk about their emotions with this set of forty digital Feelings Cards. Each card includes an illustration of a facial expression that’s been carefully drawn to capture the subtlety of its feeling. These are perfect for exploring common emotions and teaching new feelings words.
When you select a card, you’ll see a series of simple exploration questions related to that emotion.
