Ups and Downs with Feelings is a game designed to help children talk about and process uncomfortable feelings. Following a spiral path the players have opportunities to talk about feeling faces they encounter along the way. If they land on a happy face, they can talk about their positive feelings and then follow the arrow up a level. If they land on a negative feeling face, since uncomfortable feelings can make anyone feel down, they talk about their yucky feeling and then follow the arrow down a level. The player then chooses from 4 different therapeutic options which can transform their negative feelings and help them feel better. Shrinking their negative feeling allows them to move back up to where they started and continue on in the game thus learning positive coping strategies which they can use in their daily lives.
Feeling Toss Game contains a colorful chart made up of 8 different feeling faces and a suction cup ball to toss at the chart. When the child hits a feeling box, they are invited to describe a time they felt that feeling. This provides a wonderful “check in” which encourages communication about a variety of feelings. When used frequently, it helps children to become more comfortable thinking and talking about their feelings.
