Emotion Discs - Emotional Learning Tool

One of the most underestimated gifts we can give our children is that of emotional resilience. It's easy to focus on the areas of development that we can physically see in our children, like fine motor skills or reading or sports. But what if we placed as much importance on their emotional skills? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Learning how to identify different emotions can foster emotional intelligence and empathy. Understanding feelings, learning how to deal with disappointment, frustration and sadness are the building blocks of resilience in our children. 

Little Big Learning have collaborated with Australian illustrator Hannah Johnson to create a set of eight feeling and emotion discs that aim to foster emotional learning in 1 - 5 year olds. Use these discs in every day play, story telling, imaginative creations and more. Use them in calm down spaces, in classrooms or early learning centres, and of course, at home. Use them to communicate by pointing in pre/non-verbal children. 

Each disc features an original illustration and sight word on 6mm thick FSC certified European birch ply. The set is beautifully presented in a printed drawstring jute bag that can be used for storage and play.

Highlights

☆ Simple, yet detailed illustrations of a child for relatable recognition

☆ Australian designed and made with ethically sourced materials. (The storage bag is made in New Zealand)

☆ Big enough for both play and display

 ** NB These babes are being hand-made as we speak! They'll be available for dispatch in mid-September **
