Welcome to the I am Feeling Mats

Visual aids like pictures and images are great tools to help children who have difficulty expressing their emotions. Emotions can be hard to explain with words, but pictures make it easier for children to show how they feel.

These pictures represent feelings like happy, sad, or angry, helping children understand and talk about their emotions. Visual aids also give children the confidence to share their needs and feelings, making communication simpler and more enjoyable for everyone.
