fun with emotions

I was pleasantly surprised because I never read the description stating that different skin tones were included. I loved having that option. My students enjoyed creating different expressions. This center was great for the beginning of the year as I taught my students about different emotions.

Perfect for Early Learners!

These are a perfect addition to any TK or Kinder classroom! A great way to also integrate fine-motor skills as well!

Fun for kids

My kids love making silly faces out of play dough. There are 6 emotions and 4 skin tones for each one. Too many extra dough mats for just one household. These are probably best for a classroom.

Great for SEL

These are great. I use them with my special education pre-schoolers during our welcome to school unit. I love how they have the scene behind the face that helps the child to understand the feeling that the face should depict. I like to make stories up about the children and the background pictures. I would definitely recommend it.

Great for many developmental areas

I haven’t received them yet so I can’t comment on the quality of the product just yet, but based on the description and pictures I think these are really going to add to my classroom. They will be great with play dough to help with fine motor. What I really like about these are the pictures. I didn’t notice the background until I looked closer. Each emotion has different scenarios to elicit that feeling. Then they can create the face that goes along with it. That will be great for social-emotional and language development too. I almost bought some printable cards instead and I’m glad I didn’t!
