These Wooden Feelings Tokens present a collection of 24 thoughtfully crafted tokens, each mirroring a distinct emotion. This set serves as an effective tool for children to delve into and express their feelings, fostering their emotional intelligence in an engaging and interactive manner.
Crafted from high-quality, durable wood, these tokens offer sustainable learning resources that are designed to last. Their smooth texture and natural aesthetic enhance their tactile appeal, making them perfect for hands-on, sensory-based learning.
The Wooden Feelings Tokens are particularly beneficial for children who might find verbal communication challenging or experience difficulties in identifying and expressing their emotions. With these tokens, children gain a practical way to identify and name their feelings, facilitating a deeper understanding and improved management of their emotions.
Whether in schools, therapy sessions, or home environments, these tokens are versatile and adaptable, suitable for a variety of educational contexts. They can be used effectively in group activities or as personal tools for emotional expression and exploration. Our Wooden Feelings Tokens not only help children express their emotions but also stimulate the development of social-emotional competencies such as empathy, self-awareness, and effective communication. In turn, this contributes positively to their mental health and overall wellbeing, making the tokens a significant asset in every child's emotional development journey.

My Early Childhood Philosophy -
Childhood is a unique time of life, to be enjoyed and valued. It is a time where the foundations for lifelong learning and wellbeing are laid. As a professional early childhood educator first and foremost in all that I do, is the rights of the child.
I acknowledge the traditional people of the land on which I live and work. I pay my respects to elders, past and present as they hold the traditions and hopes for the future of this land.
