How To Use Christmas Emotion Faces for Kids

Teaching kids how to recognize what they’re feeling and express themselves appropriately can be challenging! At times, it’s difficult for adults too. Printable emotions faces can be really helpful when you’re trying to explain different emotions to children. 

They’re also a great way to help kids who might have difficulty verbally expressing their feelings, including children on the Autism spectrum, children with verbal delays, young children, and kids who are too upset to adequately express themselves.

Using these printable emotion faces is often easier than saying “I’m sad” or “I’m angry” out loud. Plus, Christmas emotions activities are a festive way to practice these important skills with your kids during the holiday season.

Plus, you can use holiday books and emotions activities to learn more about the characters in books and practice early reading comprehension skills with your preschoolers this Christmas.

Try these pairings:

Reading books where the characters express emotions like the worry Hansel and Gretel feel in Hansel and Gretel’s Gingerbread House or the feelings of fear and later courage experienced by the brave little penguin in Be Brave, Little Penguin can help kids identify their own feelings.

Plus, they’re an excellent way to encourage your kids to love reading this Christmas.

If you need an on-the-go Christmas emotions activity that’s portable for this holiday season, check out my easy calm down kits. Then, try some of these Christmas emotions activities for kids:

Calming Sensory Bottles

Sensory bottles are sometimes called calm down bottles because they can be a great tool for helping children manage strong emotions. When a sensory bottle is filled with visually stimulating items that move slowly, the attention of children (and even adults!) is captured by watching their slow descent. Breathing calmly and slowly while watching a sensory bottle quickly regulates emotions.

Check out these fantastic Christmas sensory bottles:

Christmas Fidgets

Fidget toys can be great for helping people of all ages, but especially children, to manage stress. By distracting kids and occupying their attention, fidgets provide a screen-free way to keep your child’s hands (and mind) engaged while you shop for the holidays, wait for an appointment, or check out at the grocery store. 

Because fidgets provide mental stimulation, they’re also great for brain breaks between lessons and occupying hands during lectures and quizzes. Plus, fidgets fit nicely in your pocket or purse to hand out when you’re waiting in line or at a crowded restaurant this holiday season.
