Feelings in a Flash - Emotional Intelligence Flashcard Game - Toddlers & Special Needs Children - Teaching Empathy Activities, Coping & Social Skills - 50 Scenario Cards, 50 Reaction Faces

I use these feelings cards in my therapy sessions with kids, and they’ve become one of my go-to tools. They’re simple, engaging, and super helpful for helping kids describe their day using emotions—especially when words don’t come easily.What I love most is that they give kids a visual way to recognize and name the wide range of emotions they can feel in a single day. It opens up great conversations and helps normalize the idea that we can feel more than one thing at once (like being excited and nervous—hello, school presentations!).The cards are colorful, easy to understand, and the kids really connect with them. I’ve had kids point and say, “That’s me at recess!” or “I felt like this when my brother took my toy.” It’s a great way to build emotional awareness and language in a way that feels fun, not forced.

Just pulled these cards out for the first time and I'm so glad I did. We first played them as a family "apples to apples"- style. The best way I've found for my daughter though is as pictured above. We laid out all of the cards in rainbow order in categories and we talked about each scenario and each chose a couple of feelings we would feel. It was interesting to see her choose feelings that were completely opposite of what I would feel in situations. It taught me allot about my daughter and I can be more aware of her feelings.Even more important, it sparked conversations and stories. We had so much fun talking about things that have happened. She loved hearing my experiences from my childhood. We played for an hour and could have kept going.She's now pulling out the blank cards and adding feelings that aren't included. The cards included have a very good range though. Most feelings we needed were there.

We can’t always express our feelings with words, and this has been a great help to our family.

The description of this product read “toddler” but the age on the package read 6+. I guess I should have zoomed in on the product picture. It doesn’t take away from what they are, but I was expecting bigger cards for a younger child to be able to handle more easily.

The media could not be loaded. Love this set designed to help my kids better understand their feelings! 50 emotions and coping strategies and 50 open ended family and school scenes. The kids have fun learning and building their vocabulary.

I'm a therapist and I've used this with kids and adults who struggle with processing or naming their emotions. Having photos of each emotion is helpful for the clients who may be better able to identify facial expressions then naming emotions. I appreciate how there are multiple ways to play this game for your different needs.

Remarkably well designed set. Beautifully illustrated and well curated set of emotions as well as good responses - better than anything else like it that I’ve seen.

I love these because as a person who works with kids, so many websites and resources offer emotion cards that are cartoon faces or emoji faces and some of them look the same or are hard to differentiate between (ex. Scared vs worried). I like these cards because they add context in the visual of WHEN you might feel this emotion (ex. Winning trophies might make you feel PROUD). Makes it a lot easier for the kids to understand!
