EMOTIONS - 'Emotion of the Day' - Display (Large)
This display/activity is intended to help the child/children identify their emotions and the experiences that trigger those emotions.
At the start of the day, one emotion is to be highlighted and discussed with the children. The children are then encouraged to tell someone if they think they experience that emotion during the day. The aim is for the children to become more introspective of their emotions, and more perceptive of the emotions of others.
As a group activity the children have the chance to learn from their peer’s experiences as well as their own.
Pack includes:
• Changeable display banner with space for different ‘Emotion of the day’ cards.
• Emotion of the day display cards for happy, sad, excited, worried, angry, confused, scared, surprised.
• Small A6 emotion cards to be placed around the setting as a reminder of the ‘Emotion of the day’.
Keywords: picture/visual communication aids, feeling, feelings, emotions, emotion/emotional regulation/dysregulation/self-regulation, mindfulness

EMOTIONS - 'What Happens When You Feel...' - Prompt Cards
The cards can be used as part of an input about emotions and feelings. The intention is that the cards would be held with the image facing the child/children and the prompts facing the adult. The activity should help the child/children think carefully about what each emotion feels like to them when they experience them. For example, when we are happy we may feel like smiling, dancing, laughing, etc. This process aids in the mindfulness practice of recognising emotions.

WHEN I FEEL WORRIED - PROMPT TEMPLATES
It can often be difficult for children (and anyone) to deal with feelings of worry and anxiety. Once these feelings become overwhelmingly strong, it can be difficult to get passed them.
These 2 sheets are designed for children and adults to discuss what helps a particular child to feel happy when they are worried. This could be things like cuddling a particular soft toy, colouring, playing Lego, reading a book, etc. Once strategies have been decided, the child could make marks in the box(es) that will remind them of this strategy when they need to use it. Alternatively, adults may create picture prompts to place in the box(es).

WHEN I FEEL ANGRY - PROMPT TEMPLATES
It can often be difficult for children (and anyone) to make good choices when they have an overwhelming feeling of anger or frustration. In order to talk about problems and express thoughts effectively it is often necessary to return to a calm state first.
These 2 sheets are designed for children and adults to discuss what helps a particular child to feel happy/calm again. This could be things like cuddling a particular soft toy, colouring, playing Lego, sitting in the reading corner, etc. Once strategies have been decided, the child could make marks in the boxes that will remind them of this strategy when they need to use it. Alternatively, adults may create picture prompts to place in the box(es).

HOW ARE YOU FEELING TODAY? PLAYDOUGH MATS
These playdough mats are perfect for gaining an insight into the day to day feelings of those in your care. Useful as a tool to explore feelings 1:1 with a child. However, they may be especially useful as a fine motor activity within a setting/school which also allows adults to tell at a glance the feelings of children within a group. This could be a particularly beneficial tool in assessing the feelings of those settling into a new setting. In addition, it aids in the mindfulness practice of recognising emotions.

'WHEN I GROW UP' SHEETS
Two different sheets intended for children to think about and record their thoughts concerning when they grow up. You may like to prescribe the area for them to think about e.g. the job they would like to do, or you may like to leave it as a more open ended task to allow the child(ren) to respond with what their initial thoughts are when looking forward in time. For example a child might say ‘be a nice person’, ‘have a family’, ‘learn how to drive a car’. Task can be completed within settings/school or given to children as a home learning challenge.
