I Heard Your Feelings – Each Conversation Card features a common scenario, such as being picked for a team, or accidentally breaking a vase. Questions on the back of each card invite parents and children to discuss what is happening and how the characters are feeling in each scene. By looking at the characters’ faces and postures and reflecting on a child’s own experiences, these cards help children to recognize emotional dynamics in a variety of situations, while sparking important conversations about feelings and socialization.
Good Manners – The perfect way to teach little ones about demonstrating good behavior in familiar situations. Delightfully illustrated with polite pigs, one side of each card asks what approach or response is right for a situation; the reverse offers a good suggestion.
