Search & Find - My Emotions
Search & Find – My Emotions is an interactive activity designed to help children recognise and understand four fundamental emotions: happy, angry, sad, and scared. By selecting an assignment strip depicting various situations, children observe the scenarios and identify the corresponding emotion. They then slide a matching face card underneath each situation and flip the strip to verify their choices. This self-checking mechanism encourages independent learning and boosts confidence. The activity fosters emotional awareness and enhances language skills, making it a valuable tool for early childhood development. Ages 3yrs+.
