I created these faces (in MS Word) to go along with my “feelings” storytime. I bring them out one by one and the kids guess what the face is feeling, and then we try to make the face ourselves. Can YOU guess what they feel?:
Here they are with their labels, which I clip on after the kids have guessed each one. I end with the “HAPPY” face, because OF COURSE we want to finish with smiles!
(I’ll admit that the kids had a little trouble with “confused;” although, some of them did get it. They also said “thinking” and “frustrated”, which are equally valid!)
I’m sorry that I’m not longer able to share copies of these faces. But rest assured, you can make your own pretty easily! MS Word, draw some circles, etc. You can do it!

this is a wonderful idea, I would like to try with my students they are between 16 months and two years old, how can I get a copy of the faces? Thank you!!
I would like a copy of the emotions or directions on how to create them in MS Word, please.
Too cute! Wow this will b simple to do using word and then get circle going and then get words typed out for emotions! Cool!😊! And I like them on the clothes pins! Simple, different, and fun for the kiddos! Good stuff!

These look great. I love the idea and it helps kids with fine motor skills too. Could you please send me a copy!

I’d have to say that confused is my favorite. 🙂 Recognizing emotion is an important skill for kids and what a fun way to practice in storytime – way to go!
Do I need to leave my email here to get a copy of the faces?
Well… here it is: storytimeabcs@gmail.com
Thank you so much for offering a copy. Makes it easier on those of us who want to steal your idea! LOL
Glad you like them (and the blog!) – I’ll send them when I’m next at work, as they’re on my work computer. Thanks!
Thanks! I’ll send it when I’m next at work – it’s on my computer there. Should have put it in Dropbox! 🙂
This will be joining my flannel stories soon. I do not have anything for the flannel board on feelings, although I do books on the theme. This is perfect. Thank you!
I would love a copy of the faces! Please send them to me freedomlibrary@roadrunner.com. Thanks so much, I really appreciate this blog!
Very cute, I could have used this in my Friday Pre-School group, as I did an Emotions story time. Children love to guess at things.
Happy Flanneling! And Sad Flanneling… And Confused Flanneling…
LOL! What a fun, simple, creative learning activity! I have so many ideas turning around in my head for adaptations of your idea for other themes and even for a craft or two, too. But first I want to make your version. I’ll be contacting you for the Word doc.
I just love this! Thank you for sharing! 🙂
This is a great post! I’d love a copy of your faces — thanks so much!
THis is so cute! I reminds me a little of Angry Birds (especially the angry face! :o) Im sure the kids enjoyed it!
