Friday Fun: The Feelings Game
We are borrowing today's activity from Teach Preschool, a wonderful resource for preschool activities of all kinds!All you need is a mirror - either give the child a hand mirror or have him or her stand in front of any mirror.
Have the child look at themselves in the mirror while singing the following (to the tune of Frere Jacques):
I am Special
I am Special
Look at me!
Look at me!
I am very special.
I am very special.
Look at me,
Look at me!
You can then add feeling words and have your child make the different faces of the feelings as they look in the mirror ("I am sad," "I am happy," "I am mad," etc.).
This will probably end in giggling, but it is a great way to encourage early steps in emotional literacy, such as the ability to recognize emotions.
