Monster Moods is a set of beautifully illustrated playing cards designed to support emotional literacy in children and young people. Seven colourful monsters embody seven common difficult emotions: anger, fear, jealousy, loneliness, restlessness and sadness. With accompanying game ideas, online activities and downloadable posters, Monster Moods can be used to facilitate work with a young person in recognising, understanding, labelling, expressing and regulating their moods and emotions.
The Resource includes:
42 'Monster Mood' cards and guidance on suggested ways to use them
"Coping with my Monster Moods" worksheets
Printable feelings vocabulary chart and Monster Moods fan to encourage children to 'name it to tame it' (Dan Siegel)
Eight printable posters to promote emotional literacy in small group work
Designed for use in groups or on a 1:1 basis by teachers, professionals and parents, the cards can be used independently or alongside the storybook How Monsters Wish to Feel. Monster Moods is a playful and non-directive approach to talking about, accepting and validating a young person's 'big feelings'.
Intended for use in educational settings and/or therapy contexts under the supervision of an adult. This is not a toy.
