Using games to talk about feelings
I would suggest using games to talk to children about different feelings. Sometimes I work with children who need support to sit.
Words for the feelings they experience and have experienced. Using games with pictures of emotions can be useful to start a conversation with the children about what they feel, how they feel in different situations, and it can give us an insight into why a child behaves in a certain way.
Pictures can help the child to understand different expressions of emotion, and to put into words emotions that arise in situations, and you can talk together about how it feels, and what the child can do when the various emotions come.
I have made two games that I use for this. They can be used alone with single children, or in groups with several children:
1. The house of feelings
2. The love game
