Emotions & Expressions: Colorcards focuses on understanding facial expressions. This comprehensive set of cards offers an opportunity to explore, through discussion, the likely emotions and responses displayed in faces and accompanying body language.

This is particularly helpful for children who fail to recognise or misread facial expressions and are consequently unable to behave appropriately after misunderstanding the responses they have observed.

Emotions and expressions featured include: Worried, Fed up, Shocked, Happy, Sad, Angry, Dislike, Scared, Pleasure, Surprised, Confused, and Love.

The accompanying manual describes each image, provides details about the importance of understanding facial expressions, and includes a case study illustrating how using the cards has provided an opportunity to address behaviour issues. More details about this can also be found in the book Not Just Talking.

The set features 48 cards, sized 210 x 148mm (A5), along with an explanatory manual. It is suitable for ages 5 and up.

Intended for use in educational settings and/or therapy contexts under the supervision of an adult. This is not a toy.
