Feelings Playing Cards by Jim Borgman Pulitzer Prize Winner

These were great for using with my younger clients. I didn't worry so much about them being bent. You can use them as playing cards for matching games. My young clients came up with the most clever emotion games like the card game WAR, but if you lost you had to act out the feelings on all the cards you were losing. Lots of fun and a great way to talk to kids about their feelings.

I've admired Jim Borgman's worked and have used his illustrations in other capacities in my therapy practice. These cards are so useful in my work with children and adolescents. The faces are entertaining and accurate, and the pack includes 15 game suggestions which are fun for a variety of clients. The cards are slightly larger than regular playing cards, and have a smooth, glossy surface and substantial feel.

I love these playing cards. They are a little bigger than the average sized deck of cards. The quality and pictures with feelings are great. There are a lot of uses for these cards for my son. The seller also shipped quickly to me.

I really love how it helped my son understand his feelings it’s a must buy

I use The Feelings Playing Cards in my classroom of five year olds. They love the bright colors and they card have held up very nicely even with little kids who move them the whole time we are talking. I liked the variety of the emotions. They allow us to be able to explore and try to understand what these emotions mean to us. Many people start teaching emotions later than children need to know about them. These cards allow young kids to understand. I recommend them for any counseling office and school classroom.

I love these cards and my students do too! So far, we have only played "Feelings Go Fish" so the elementary students can get to know the names and definitions for the emotions. They are very amused by the faces and they love to use the new words in their vocabulary- although sometimes incorrectly still. You can't really blame a third grader for getting irritable and smug mixed up lol. Great quality cards and big enough for little kids to grab.

Great Game! I purchased this game to be used in my outpatient office with child and adolescent clients. I often use these cards at the start of my sessions to engage my clients to identify the feelings/emotions they experienced throughout the day. Then we process the experiences behind the emotions. It certainly helps my clients to learn that they have many mixed emotions throughout the day. They also learn that there is good reason behind their "I don't know" response to "how are you feeling?"

Feelings cards were purchased to help youth with identifying feelings and what coping skills to appropriately use. It was helpful to use for her goals.

Awesome and fun way to teach kids about feelings and emotions.

Very expensive for what they are. Much cheaper ways available for children to explore their feelings.

Great set. My kids love it.

amazing
