Feelings

Feelings (Classes I – II)

The aim of this project is to develop emotional skills in children as they grow up, paving the way to a happy and healthy life. Feelings are an integral part of every individual’s life and by learning to identify their emotions and feelings, and also how to process them, the children can experience a positive change in their behavior. If they are able to correctly recognise their emotions and what’s causing them, it will be easier for them to manage difficult situations. The first step is to learn vocabulary about feelings, so the little ones can acknowledge them and then can act accordingly.
