MOOD FLIP BOOK

"How do I feel?'' ''What can I do?'' This simple tool helps youngsters identify their feelings and accept or cope with intense or difficult emotions. Facial expressions on each card depict a range of feelings and moods--from happy to sad, friendly to shy, discouraged to angry, and more--that can be matched to the child’s current state. The back of each card suggests several strategies relevant to that feeling or mood, including asking for help, deep breathing, talking, finding a quiet place to calm down, and asking for a turn.
