Eddie. Perceiving, recognising and naming feelings. Kamishibai picture card set

Learning to perceive and express feelings. When Eddie is angry, he clenches his fists and the corners of his mouth turn down. Inside, it feels like a bubbling volcano. This happens, for example, when Rosa makes faces to annoy him. Eddie's body language also clearly shows how he feels inside with other emotions. The Kamishibai picture cards by Antje Bohnstedt depict the little monster Eddie in various emotional states. The inner perspective and outer expression are always contrasted, helping children in daycare and school recognize and name their own feelings. There are 21 Kamishibai picture cards covering 14 emotions, complete with text templates. Feelings and emotions from the inside and outside: with prompting questions for further discussions. How do body language, facial expressions, and gestures help others recognize our feelings? Practicing the perception and expression of feelings for children aged 4-8. Fostering empathy in children: How does Eddie feel in the illustrations? Using Kamishibai to promote emotional competence. The little monster is larger than life: regardless of the feelings and emotions Eddie is experiencing, children can easily recognize how he feels based on his body language. The direct comparison of the inner perspective with everyday situations in which he experiences a specific emotion encourages conversations about personal experiences. This helps children become aware of and communicate their feelings, supporting them in learning to manage emotions. Using storytelling theater to promote emotional skills in children: Eddie demonstrates how joy, courage, and much more look from the inside and outside.
