[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My 2.5 year old really loved these and it got us recognizing feelings more. The bright colors make them easy to distinguish from each other and are appealing to little ones. My wish for future ones is to have some ideas for discussion with each feeling.
I would definitely recommend this product!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used these to help my toddler connect with feelings, especially anger. We had a brief moment where he was hitting and the use of these hand puppets helped him stop doing that. I was actually shocked at how well it worked.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My Autistic daughter LOVES these puppets. We use them to help teach her language for emotions & what they may look like in others. Thanks to these she says "happy" now when she is happy!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this puppet set for free in exchange for my honest review. All opinions are my own. My spouse and I are former Montessori teachers, and have a 2.5 and 5.5 year old at home. Both our kids liked playing with the puppets. I enjoyed the accompanying booklet with ideas for how to use them with my children. Beyond the facial expressions, I also appreciated the symbolic features like: red for angry, crazy hair for surprised, tear shaped face for sad to reinforce these associations). They are also great for unstructured, open-ended imaginative play. I would recommend these for families with children under 5, and it would make a great gift because of the wide appeal.
So useful!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My little one loves playing with them! They're durable and soft. Easy to see the faces and they're easily recognizable for my little one to acknowledge and own the emotions they're feeling.
Love this product!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely recommend this product, it has been such a great tool to introduce different feelings to my baby. Visual stimulation is so important for babies to grasp concepts and I feel this toy does just that.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product free in exchange for an honest review. 1st of all the product is wonderfully made and i feel it will last a lot of little hands using it for a long time. They fit my hand ✋️ and little hands to both use so thats a plus. I do feel its a better fit for Kinder and Pre schoolers to help express their emotions. My 9yld did like playing with them but that was short lived. I love that your clearly able to distinguish the emotions and the bright colors to match that emotion. They are not just useful for emotions but such a great puppet toy for just general imagination. I was pleasantly suprised at how long my 5yld played with them and didn't want to share. I would definitely recommend to anyone who works with pre k and kindergarten students to use for expressing emotions and general play.
My 2 year old really enjoyed

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter really likes playing with these. I like that they came with an instruction booklet on how to use them. The only reason I took away one star is that the appearance of the faces on the puppets is slightly confusing.
So cute!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this little emotion puppets. Our 1.5yr old loves mimicking the faces and going through the different emotions with the puppets. We've also used them to communicate how we feel and it's so nice when they still can't fully express themselves.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product for free in exchange for my honest review. I have an almost 3 year old and a 1 1/2 year old as well as a 5 year old. They all enjoyed playing with the puppets. My 5 year old used each puppet to show different emotions and the two little ones identified them. Such a great way of showing kids how to express their emotions.
