eeBoo: I Heard Your Feelings, Conversation Flash Cards, Reading Emotional Situations, Develop Social and Emotional Intelligence, for Ages 3 and up

The children love going through these Social Emotional cards with me.

The front of each card has a little scenario with personified animals. The back of the card asks a few simple questions. It doesn't seem like these would be worth $12, and yet they are so incredibly useful! It was hard to tell from the few examples given, but these cover a wide range of scenarios ranging from the obvious (ice cream fell out of the cone) to the very subtle (people standing in a particular arrangement with different facial expressions, what is happening here?) It's not meant to be gone through all at once, but as a more slow build or continual practice.I absolutely love that they don't have an age listed, and the text and characters are able to be used with an older child. In fact, while I bought this with a particular child in mind, they were so good that we've been using them as a whole family, doing a few per day. And yes, I have been known to stack the deck after certain behavior choices - there's a card that relates to every possible behavior.The only flaw I had with this, is that one card had a character listed wrong on the back. All the characters are anthropomorized animals like Cat, Dog, Bear, etc. The smaller "child" figures have names like Cub, Kitten, Puppy, etc. They missed one and labeled the character wrong.It also annoyed me at first that the background color seems to be random. However, there are actually subtle differences in the colors and each card has a unique color. So then I thought it was neat that so much thought was put into the background. We have bought a lot of SEL stuff, because building emotional intelligence is important to us as parents. But in terms of value per dollar for a purchase, I think this was our best ever. After we have cycled through this deck a few times, I intend to purchase some of the others in this series.

As a former preschool special education teacher turned mom, I highly recommend these cards! We use this with the Torchlight Pre-K curriculum. Emotions and social skills are the biggest take-away preschoolers can achieve at this age, as it will serve them for a lifetime of better quality relationships. I suggest helping kids learn about their feelings and that of others before worrying about if they have their letters/numbers down.My almost 5-year-old and 2.5-year-old are both very interested in these picture cards. The illustrations are simple enough so that a preschooler can understand what is going on or begin to understand the emotions/concepts as you help explain. I like that there are a few characters used repetitively throughout the set so kids grow familiar with their names (I.e. pig and piglet). The questions on the back of the cards are great for getting kids to start realizing to look at others’ faces and body language to understand how they’re feeling.This would also be a great learning tool for kids on the autism spectrum of any age!

Am a K-5 school counselor using these decks with K-G3 kiddos, one of whom is on the spectrum. These decks help students understand and problem solve social scenarios as well as to help with regulating emotions. The back of the cards prompt questions which students can answer and it helps us move on to elaborate with real life situations. Liking the series, just wish there was more.

These are great for conversation starters for your child. We are learning about empathy and feelings and these were nice to get things started. It is interesting to listen to his perspective on what he sees in these cards. These are fine for the fourth grade level he is, but might be silly for teens.

I work with young clients, and I find these cards to be incredibly helpful in treatment. The cards contain different social situations on them. The goal of the kids is to figure out what's happening, why, and how to resolve an issue if there is one depicted. Overall, I would recommend to any treatment provider working with kinder to 3rd or 4th graders.

These cards are so great! Me and my kids have long conversations about the pictures and the questions help me a little bit on guideing whats actually happening in the picture. We talk about a lot of different scenarios of what could be happening how they're each feeling and sometimes we tell an entire story about it. My kids are 4-7 and they both particpate well when I bring this out

I purchased these for my preschooler and have really liked them. We do 1-2 cards a week, and it has been interesting to hear his interpretation of the scenarios and discuss feelings and kindness. My 7 year old child even likes to join in the discussion with the younger child. I plan on purchasing more decks from this series.
