Emotions Check-In
The ‘Emotions Check-In’ board has been designed to support children and young people with identifying their feelings and emotions.
Sometimes it is difficult to identify exactly how you are feeling. As adults, we can struggle to find the words. However, this word mat has been made as a starting point for discussions surrounding children and young people’s emotions.
This resource features The Scribbles Crew, a group of friendly looking emotions characters that can be created by any child. They are just that: scribbles!
