Each puppet expresses an emotion through its unique facial expression, body position, and design- providing children a comfortable way to identify and talk through their feelings. As they explore the puppets through dramatic play, role-play, and guided discussions with peers and adults, children will start to understand five core emotions in themselves and in others: happy, angry, surprised, sad, and scared. Engaging with the puppets through independent and guided play helps children build the skills they need to manage their feelings, foster relationships, and build healthy connections to the world around them. Children will learn how to use facial and body clues to identify their emotions. These puppets can be used for both directed and independent play. They include soft textures and make crinkle sounds that add a layer of sensory play. Explore both positive and negative feelings through hands-on play! Encourage children to explore each puppet's attributes and think about how different emotions feel on the inside and look on the outside. This helps children identify how their own bodies are feeling and builds self-awareness. By recognizing these feeling sin the puppets and then in others, children also build social awareness. Each puppet is designed to reflect and communicate its feeling.
