This charades game is unique because it asks players to combine each thing they act out with an emotion! kids will have to guess if they are seeing a "happy shark" a "scared fisherman" or an "angry painter". This twist makes the game a bit more challenging and a lot more funny all while teaching kids emotional awareness and empathy!

Kids will have to exaggerate their expressions and body language to help the other players guess which emotions they are acting out. This will help them recognize how emotions are displayed in themselves and others. This method of "practicing" having big emotions will make the sensations less confusing and overwhelming when actually experiencing big emotions.
