While browsing Pinterest the other day I came across this great idea! Creating Feeling Rocks!
It is a rock with a small picture on it expressing a feeling and the feeling written below. Then when confusing feelings come up you can pull out your rocks and talk it over, show the face, and explain. This is a way to help ease tantrums and help your child learn about and express their feelings.
We decided this was a neat idea, so we got up one morning, found a bucket and went on a rock hunt. This was the best part, we went all over, down to the creek and along the running trail and spent some great time together talking and exploring! When we got home we printed out the pictures and mod podged them onto our freshly washed rocks. After 2 coats and some drying time, we have ourselves a full set of feeling rocks and are having so much fun playing with and talking about them!
I hope you find these neat and inspiring!
