A great tool for introducing emotions to kids is to use emotion picture cards or emotion flash cards. Especially since there are so many different ways to use them (as you'll see below).
And since it's Christmas, I thought it would be fun to make some adorable Christmas themed emotions cards. Specifically, some Christmas tree themed ones. Although you can find Santa, reindeer, and Christmas star ones included in their respective emotion packs in the shop if you'd prefer those.
So let's take a closer look at what's included in this set of free emotions picture cards.
About these Christmas Tree Emotions Cards
This pack of 12 emotions cards feature a cute Christmas tree emoji paired with a corresponding emotion word. The 12 emotions included in this set include happy, sad, surprised, nervous, mad, excited, silly, frustrated, tired, embarrassed, calm, and upset.
How to Use these Printable Emotions Cards
There are so many different ways to use emotion cards. Here are a few suggestions that you could try:
- Put them on a binder ring so your child can flip through them to pick how they are feeling
- Print off two copies and turn it into an oversized memory matching game
- Pick a card and try to copy or imitate that emotion into a mirror
- Pick a card and go on a feelings walk using that emotion
- Select a card at random and talk about a time you felt that way
- Choose a card and discuss things that make you feel that emotion and/or ways you cope with that feeling
- Play charades by drawing a random card and acting it out
I highly recommend laminating these cards first. It will make them more durable. Here's the laminator I use and love.
