Feelings and Emotions Sorting Bags – Build Emotional Intelligence Through Interactive Play
Support children’s emotional growth with the Feelings and Emotions Sorting Bags – a thoughtfully designed resource that helps young learners recognise, name, and express their emotions. Ideal for early years settings, therapy sessions, and home learning, this engaging set uses real-world images and tactile sorting to promote emotional literacy, empathy, and communication skills.
The Feelings and Emotions Sorting Bags set includes six durable cotton bags, each labelled with a core emotion: Happy, Sad, Surprised, Worried, Angry, and Upset. Accompanying the bags are 60 multicultural photo cards featuring expressive faces, real-life scenarios, and objects that evoke a range of emotions. Children are encouraged to sort each card into the bag that matches the emotion it represents, making abstract concepts like feelings more tangible and understandable.
Perfect for circle time, group discussions, or one-on-one support, the Feelings and Emotions Sorting Bags provide a safe space for children to explore their feelings and understand why they feel that way. By encouraging emotional dialogue from a young age, this versatile tool nurtures confidence, empathy, and critical thinking.
Made from 100% natural cotton and high-quality card, this eco-conscious resource is designed for lasting use, combining sustainability with impactful learning.
