I love this game as a Social Emotional Learning resource! I use it with my 11 year old son with autism. We have never played the game, but we use it frequently for talking about feelings, identifying feelings when we read, and writing about feelings. The facial illustrations and body language are very accurate and detailed in the pictures. I also like that the feeling cards have levels. For example, there is annoyed, angry, and furious feeling cards. This opens up conversations about the degree of feelings. It can be used for sorting and ordering them on a feeling thermometer. We use the cards a lot for other activities related to emotions and feelings. The situation cards are great for writing and conversations. We use them to identify the feelings of each person in the picture, talk about why each person feels that way, and discuss what they can do with the feeling especially if it is a strong feeling. Overall, this is a great resource for a child that needs help identifying feelings.

The product was exactly as described. It kept my 4-year-old energetic son engaged. He was not easily distracted by the simplistic writing and pictures. He was able to read the words and identify facial features that matched the words. I appreciate that each board has three different scenes for the one setting. I am excited to use it to teach social emotional skills with elementary students.

I'm a therapist and use this with my younger kids. It can be tough to learn at the beginning but once everyone starts to understand then it's a lot of fun. My kiddos age in range from 3 (played go fish with the cards) to 9 (I didn't use this with teens). The older kids are competitive so they enjoyed playing it as a game to win. We get a lot of conversation out of this game, too. Surprisingly fun.

When I saw this new game by Skill-Ease it was a no brainer to buy it. I loved the story cue cards so I figured this would be just as enjoyed. It turns out that this even better than I had anticipated. The illustrations are gorgeous- the kids were really drawn in! I played it with my therapy clients with a large age-range. We spent so long just analyzing each board. There was so much to talk about and look at. We discussed the facial expressions and the cause and effect- why they might be feeling that way. The emotion cards are great to use on their own for teaching emotions. I liked how there was a range of intensity for each emotion- such as “nervous”, “scared”, “terrified”. I played it with my own kids at home as a family game and they loved it! There hasn’t been one work day since I bought this that I haven’t used this game-and I don’t think that will change anytime soon! This has definitely become my go to therapy tool.

Very high quality parts everything is top notch in quality including the box. Can’t wait to use this with my students!

I have played the game with students 2nd grade - 5th grade and the younger ones have a difficult time matching the cards to the chosen board. Possibly because it’s not the same picture on the card than on the board they chose. It does open up the opportunity for discussion on body language and reasons behind the emotions but that it is better played one on one rather than in group.

I played this with the social worker at my school and then with some of my third grade students. We all agree it was fun to play. It started great conversations about connections we each made to the pictures of the feelings portrayed on the cards and boards. The illustrations were culturally diverse and the expressions were realistic. We also appreciated the suggestions to help us handle our feelings. I believe this game will go far to help students name their feelings and empathize with other's feelings. Overall two thumbs up.

This was a good exercise for students to aid in understanding various emotions.

I love this game set for therapy. My clients also enjoy it very much. It’s similar to bingo but can be extended well beyond this in discussions with clients. The illustrations are lovely.
