The 'Emotional Eggs' Flashcards
The Emotional Eggs have been created to encourage children to talk about different feelings and the varied vocabulary associated with them. It is a tool for developing emotional literacy and feelings vocabulary. The Emotional Eggs are the perfect Easter addition to any EYFS or KS1 setting.
These could be used to play snap, start conversations, as charades – acting out each emotion, a discussion prompt for ‘tell me about a time when…’ and SO much more!
