Big feelings can be overwhelming for little bodies. This set turns the abstract concept of 'emotions' into something they can hold, build, and understand. Instead of a meltdown, they can point to the 'angry' face or build the 'shy' expression, giving them a safe way to communicate when words fail. Perfect for the social and emotional developmental stage (approx. 2–5 years), it bridges the gap between feeling an emotion and understanding it. You'll see their confidence grow as they learn to recognise empathy in others and regulate their own reactions.

Also available in a great value bundle

This is an essential tool for navigating the 'big feelings' years.

The Frustrated Toddler (2–3 years) who knows what they want but can't yet find the words to explain why they are upset.
The Pre-Schooler (3–5 years) preparing for the social dynamics of kindy and learning to read their friends' faces.
Parents & Carers looking for a gentle, non-screen way to discuss behaviour and emotions without it feeling like a lecture.

Name It To Tame It

"Why am I sad?" It's a big question for a three-year-old. This set turns those invisible feelings into a tangible educational game. By picking a card—like a picture of a dropped ice cream—you can start a gentle conversation: "How would that make you feel?" They then find the matching magnets to build that expression on the board. It validates their experiences and gives them the vocabulary to say "I'm frustrated" instead of just screaming.

A Mirror For Empathy

The 20 situation cards aren't just about the child; they're about understanding others. Flipping the card reveals the 'answer' face, helping them connect an event (cause) with an emotion (effect). The set also includes a mirror inside the box, allowing your child to practice making the faces themselves—a brilliant, low-pressure way to practice reading social cues before they head off to kindy or prep.

Calm, Quiet Connection

Made with a smooth wooden board and durable pieces, this set has a satisfying quality that grounds the play. There are no flashing lights or noises—just focused, quiet connection between you and your child. It's an ideal tool for a 'calm down corner', giving them a constructive activity to do while they process their day.
