Use this fun & engaging I Feel... Activity Mat in your child(ren)'s everyday play and learning.

Children will be challenged to connect and express their emotions through this interactive Activity Mat. Children will use their fine motor skills to create different facial expressions with various materials.

Use a dry erase marker, or our No Mess Slime or Construction Dough Sensory Recipe.

• Using the senses in new and exciting ways during play.
• Doing Pre-K and Kindergarten prep and learning through hands on play.
• Practice labeling emotions and expressing those feelings.

 I recommend to:

1. Use various materials with the activity mats to expand the sensory play experience.
2. Review the emotion names and characteristics of each feeling with your child before setting them free to explore and play themselves.
3. Expand the play by challenging them by expressing a random emotion and making those facial expressions. Have them guess the correct emotion then draw or create with clay the expression on the mat.
4. Play the game! Enjoy and have fun!
