Overview

Full-color elves grin, grimace, groan and gesture through 20 emotions to help children learn how to identify and express such different feelings as pride, anger, excitement and disappointment. Each elf appears on two cards: one is printed with the emotion’s name in three languages—English, Spanish, and Japanese. The corresponding cards use only elves, so the cards can be used in matching games like Old Maid and Go Fish, or in one of several special emotions games created by Elizabeth Crary. Designed for use in emotional literacy lessons, in rehabilitation therapy, and in foreign-language and English-as-a-Second-Language classes, these cards are appropriate for both genders and all ethnic groups.
