I’m a counselor for children and I use this set often. I absolutely love that it asks kids to not only identify feelings but also to interpret social situations and how people may feel in them. Both are important skills.

A Great Way to Learn about Feelings!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Learn About Feelings Activity Set is a wonderful way to discuss feelings and emotions with younger children. My three year-old has some big feelings and it was a great way to talk about them with her and help her understand them better. My seven year-old loved playing with the set with her three year-old sister also. It was very easy to use and my children love it!

Wonderful Emotion Activity for Younger Children!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am the mother of three special needs kiddos and I found the Educational Insights Learn About Feelings Activity Set to be fun for my youngest two children, but my oldest child (with Autism) really was not interested. I do wish there were more emotions, or you could add emotion stickers to the cubes. The kit does have extra stickers, but they are for other languages and not emotions. It's a very basic feelings/emotions kit and most of the games it includes are really difficult for special needs children to understand the premise of. I feel this would be best for younger children, but not necessarily great for special needs children who don't understand the basic premises of emotions. Although, it can be helpful in teaching them, it really needs more emotions available. I do think it is wonderful and I would definitely recommend this to other parents, but it needs some fine tuning to really teach emotions.

Great way to discuss emotions
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This game allowed us to talk and share about different types of emotions with our toddler. Young kids have such a range of feelings, this was a fun way to talk and learn about different ones. My son enjoyed matching the dice together and making faces to go along with them. I am a teacher and could also see myself using this in my classroom.

Emotional game changer
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Such a game changer when it comes to teaching littles about their feelings. I have a 3 and 4 year old who both picked up on this game fairly quickly.

Cute
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Super fun, 3 year old thought the faces are fun to imitate. It's a great way to explore feelings in different formats: matching situations to feelings and matching descriptions of body language to face blocks. It was however somewhat challenging to have him follow along with the game since he is only 3 .

Love this activity set for my little one!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This learn about feelings activity kit is perfect for young children who are figuring out how to express and process their feelings. First off, as a first time parents I love the activity guide that explains social-emotional learning and how to talk to our littles about their emotions/how to manage. I'm figuring out parenthood as it comes so I'm very thankful for educational tools to help me learn too! Secondly the kit is very versatile- there are multiple activities that that can be done with the items like matching, discussing, and acting out etc. My daughter likes matching the cards with the blocks and stacking blocks for different combinations. The feeling chart is a nice colorful add, but haven't put it on the wall or anything. Finally, I really like the real situation cards and asking my daughter how she feels about this different real life pictures. Overall, highly recommend this kit- very helpful tool to help our littles learn about their feelings… especially since at a young age they have LOTS of BIG feeling to express! :)

Interesting concept
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This toy is interesting, and great for helping kiddos understand emotions, as well as recognizing facial expressions. My 4 year old enjoyed it immensely for one play session, but hasn't wanted a thing to do with it since. I think that's more of a him problem than a toy problem, so I'm not docking any stars for that! Still a great educational toy for emotional awareness!

Great To Teach Big Feelings to Little Minds
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This has been great to teach my toddler about emotions. He's just learning about different ways to feel and I think this has helped him recognize and connect to his feelings in a visual way.

Good therapy toy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is great if you're trying to talk about feelings with your child. I wouldn't call this a toy necessarily but it does gamify the conversation you maybe be having already with your kids about feelings. There's lots of different ways to use this, and my 3 year old was interested for about 7 or 8 minutes with the activities before he wanted to do something else. It's especially great for matching expressions and body language with naming the feeling, which is a great skill for kids to learn.

Fun and Educational
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great set for younger children to help understand their feelings. My 4 year old can explain alot better how he is feeling at different times of the day now. The set is fun while being educational. Its one of the better items that are currently on the market. I would buy this in the future and recommend to all other parents out there.

A great way to recognise emotions
This is great for the younger children. As you open the box there are cards and dices that look fun, my 4 year old was interested straight away. The main aim of the game is to recognise and understand facial expressions and body language and match them to the right picture cards. My daughter found this quite easy but still enjoyed matching and looking at all the different cards / dices sides. Even if they are good at recognising this there's still lots of fun to be had in just matching and copying. There are lots of different ways to play, the photos are bright and the dices are a perfect size for little hands. I know this game will be played with again and again.
