Why it helps
A way to say a feeling before they have the words.
You need
- 4 paper plates
- Markers
How
- Draw a happy, sad, mad and scared face, one on each plate.
- Hold them up and act each feeling with silly voices.
- Later, when it's hard, ask: "Which plate are you right now?"
Always with a grown-up. Small parts are a choking hazard for children under 3.
