After labeling the emotions, have children practice making the emotion with their own faces. Use puppets to act out different situations (e.g., one puppet takes a toy from another puppet) ask the children what emotion(s) the puppets might be feeling (have them choose from pictures of children making different emotions).

Let me show my scared face (everyone make a scared face together). Let me show you my angry face (everyone make an angry face together).I feel scared when I hear a loud noise. Let me show you my happy face (everyone makes a happy face together). For example (to row row your boat) - I feel happy when I play outside.

Ask questions like “How can you tell that the character is feeling that way? Can you make a face that shows that feeling?” While reading stories to children, have children guess how the characters in the story are feeling.Throughout the day, help children learn to label their own emotions (e.g., it looks like you are feeling mad that we can't go outside what can we do to help you feel better?).Make different emotion faces and have children guess what you might be feeling.Ideas for Teaching Children about Emotions
