We know that teaching emotional literacy to neurodivergent kids can feel like solving a complex puzzle. It’s hard to recognize or explain a feeling when your brain is running a marathon! This Felt Expressions Activity turns abstract emotions into concrete, hands-on fun. It gives your child the tools to build, see, and discuss faces that look happy, sad, or frustrated. It's a wonderful way to "felt" out" those big emotions!

Stop guessing how your child is feeling and start showing them! This kit provides a variety of felt pieces—eyes, eyebrows, mouths—that children can arrange on a felt board to create countless emotional expressions. This activity helps connect the physical components of a face (e.g., furrowed brows = frustrated) with the feeling inside. It’s a low-stakes, creative way to open up those tough conversations, helping your child and you feel "all-the-feels" but in a healthy, supported way.
