Emotions For Kids

Feelings Activities

At the beginning of this Feelings and Emotions Printable Pack is an emotions chart. This would be great printed on white cardstock and then laminated. Children can review this chart when needed to help them understand and control their emotions.

Also included are some Emotions flashcards. These would be great laminated too. They could be used in many ways such as:

  • Helping children understand their emotions
  • Helping children share how they are feeling
  • Spelling the different types of emotions
  • Learning facial expressions that relate to each emotion
  • Matching / Memory Games when two copies are printed

worksheet for kindergarten feelings

The emotion chart includes a way for children to describe how they are feeling today. This emotions chart helps children put into words how they may be feeling. You can also use it to pose pretend scenarios and ask children how they would feel if such and such happened. “If you forgot your lunch at home how would you feel?” “When you got angry and threw the toys on the floor, how were you feeling?” This is also why using books about feelings is so important for these type of lesson plans for preschoolers. It helps children examples of scenarios where feelings and emotions move around the chart. Check out the  20 Books About Feelings For Kids  post. Print a small version of the emotion faces chart for quick reference or to send home with children.

At the end of the pack are some blank faces. There are two faces per page. These pages are great for children to complete to show how they are feeling. They can add the facial expressions as well as color in the pictures. They could also practice writing the name of their emotion next to the face.

Other activities in this Feelings and Emotions Printable Pack include more exploration of how a child feels. It also encourages children to talk about different ways they can express their emotions. “What does your face look like when you are mad? How do you feel inside when you are angry?”

Emotions Worksheets

I have included a booklet of blank faces so children can include emotions for kids that they are currently feeling. It is a great activity for when a child is feeling frustrated. By asking them to draw or show them how they feel they are learning to understand their feelings and why they might be feeling emotional. You could print out the 3 part cards above and use them for a game teaching feeling too!

Free Feelings and Emotions Printables and Activities

By Sarah Shelton on September 27, 2021

Do your little ones need help understanding feelings and emotions? When my daughter was very young it was clear that she had sensory issues and self control was definitely an issue. We often said “use your words” to try and get her to communicate how she was feeling, but sometimes she couldn’t. Using printables and activities on feelings and emotions helped her to express her feelings more accurately.

worksheet for kindergarten feelings

Helping Children Express Feelings and Emotions

If your child has difficulty expressing emotions, you may be wondering how to get them to talk about feelings.  Teaching your child how to to identify and express emotions can be difficult, especially if you are not a very sensitive person.  Free emotions downloads might prove to be super helpful for you. You can use a feelings chart for kids or an emotions worksheet to help teach them how to express themselves. 

When I was a child I grew up in an abusive and severely dysfunctional home. This has caused me to handle my feelings quite a bit differently than many people. I learned how to put up walls and hide how I felt. Tragically, this caused me heartache when my youngest daughter was struggling with her feelings and didn’t know how to express them. 

Ways to Express Feelings

We tried many different ways to get our daughter to express how she was feeling, we used feelings pictures, an emotion chart for kids, a fun feelings activity, but what I found most helpful when she couldn’t express herself adequately were using emotion flashcards. We have included some free emotions flashcards in our Feelings and Emotions Activity Pack below.

Ideas for Expressing Emotions

  • You can use a teaching feeling game, printable emotion cards, or a feelings game printable to help your young ones understand how and why they are feeling a certain way.
  • Use emotion cards pdf files to print and use to help identify feelings.
  • A feelings worksheet can be super helpful to use to work though feelings as you ask your child questions and work through visuals. 
  • Feeling faces printables (like the freebie we have below) can help non-verbal children explain how they feel.
  • Use feelings flashcards that show emotions (great for visual learners).
  • Print and use our emotions chart with faces that can help keep track of bad days. A feeling chart for kids can help you reflect on what may have contributed to certain emotions.
  • You can have lots of fun playing and reading books while learning about how to handle your feelings and emotions. 

Learning how to help children work through feelings and emotions can radically change your home.

worksheet for kindergarten feelings

How do you use flashcards for feelings?

Using flashcards for feelings and emotions can help toddlers or even older children tell us how they are feeling. Even a non-verbal child can often look at an angry face and tell it’s angry. If we lay out several flashcards with emotional faces on them, we can help them point to how they are feeling.

Feeling Flashcards

Feelings and Emotions flashcards can also be used as a game. You can get creative and make up stories that reflect the emotions and feelings of the face on the flashcard. 

Feelings Journal Printables:

Keeping track of your child’s feelings and emotions using a feelings journal can be helpful when you are trying to determine sensory triggers, or other emotional responses that are out of the ordinary. 

Emotions Journal

Logging everything in the emotions journal will help you spot patterns. Even things such as the weather, sleep the night prior, meals, and activities. Journaling about feelings can help you become aware of situations that you might need to consider avoiding.

Social Emotional Learning Skills

Social Emotional Learning Journal – These journal prompts focus on self-awareness and help you teach social emotional learning skills. 

Coping Strategies Notebook – This free emotions template can help you create a feelings and emotions binder that you can use to log situations and detail how certain coping strategies hurt or helped. 

Printable Gratitude Journal Templates – It’s a great idea to also keep a list/log of all the things your child is grateful for so you can reference it when troubles arise. 

Expressing Big Feelings

Whether you have younger children or older kids , they are likely to have big feelings (most of us do!). It can be difficult for children to express different emotions, and that’s where printable feelings charts can be a powerful tool.

Learn and Teach Emotion Words

If you have a child who is prone to throwing a temper tantrum, they may need help understanding their own emotions. You can keep an emotional vocabulary handy, and teach them emotion words to use to express their own feelings.

Printable Facial Expressions

You can also use a feelings book or journal that has feelings faces if you have a non-verbal child. The best way to help them express their various emotions is to allow them to show you the face that best explains how they are feeling.

Games that Teaching Feelings and Emotions:

You can use a free printable feelings board game to help your child practice mastering his feelings. There are also some great board games that you can invest in that your whole family can play. 

Feelings Game Printable

Games are a fun and non-threatening way to get children to communicate how they are feeling without a lot of pressure. Children who are struggling to express themselves might be able to act out a situation that reflects how they are feeling.

Discover some new coping strategies to handle difficult emotions.

  • My Feelings Game – Explore more than 200 scenarios that will help your child talk about his feelings. Discover strategies to help children cope with emotions in a socially acceptable way. 
  • Positive Traits Game – This coping skills game is perfect for group or solo play. It includes trait pictures and discussion cards with 10 different ways to play. 
  • Emotional Rollercoaster – This emotions board game looks like a fun way to help work through difficult emotions, such as anger management. 

Using Printables to Help Kids Share Feelings

When my daughter struggled with sensory processing, I never thought to browse google for an emotions worksheet that would help her express the way she was feeling. Learning how to help kids with emotions can be difficult. We created our own pages using hand-drawn emoji faces before we finally just created an emotions worksheet, which grew into a whole activity pack, complete with feelings pictures instead of hand-drawn ones. She enjoyed this much more. 

Resources for Kids to Express Their Feelings

There are so many free resources on emotions that can be helpful for young children who struggle to express their feelings and communicate what they are feeling.

Free Emotions Downloads

We have created several free printables on feelings and emotions along with activities that can help your kids communicate their feelings, and teach your child to identify and express emotions and learn how to cope when they feel overwhelmed. These free feelings printables can be of great help to you.

Overwhelming Emotions

Sometimes emotions can be really overwhelming for little ones to understand, and sometimes you can have kids that are overly emotional and need help getting themselves in check. That’s where using fun printables and games come in handy. Printable emotion cards for adults can even come in handy when you are dealing with special needs. 

Free Feelings and Emotions Printables:

We have done the legwork of searching for printable emotions worksheets, face emotion cards, a feelings chart for kids, and feelings games that you can use to teach coping skills. Be sure to grab our free resources as well; you’ll find them below.

Task cards can be helpful as a springboard for conversation. When kids struggle to communicate what they are feeling, they may act out and behave in ways that you don’t allow, such as yelling, stomping feet, talking back, or maybe even hiding in a corner. 

Consider using some emotions task cards as scenarios to get your kids to open up about how they feel.

Social Problem-Solving Task Cards – I love these conversational task cards that can help you work with your child on what to say and how to act with different situations.

Animal Emotions Clip Cards – Themed clip cards using the faces of animals. Perfect for your animal-loving child!

Feelings and Emotions Posters and Charts:

Using posters and charts is a good way to track progress of handling tough situations. Children can often be encouraged when they see how far they’ve come.

Don’t Give Up! An Object Lesson for Kids Who Feel Down – Change your child’s attitude from defeated to encouraged with this activity that changes experiences from negative to positive. 

The Power of Yet Posters – Use these encouraging posters to help your struggling child realize that practice makes things easier.

Feelings worksheets for kids are the best way to help identify kids’ emotions and feelings.

At this age, it is very important to give them adequate information and knowledge about emotions and why we feel them.
