Dress Up Moody Bear

Help kids recognize emotions

Six mix-and-match outfits with six different mood faces come in a wooden storage case. Lid has recessed form for the bear to be assembled on! Ideal for children who are learning to express and recognize facial expressions.

Play Tip!

Many children (especially those with autism-like conditions) have difficulty interpreting facial expressions and understanding why people feel certain emotions. This puzzle offers an opportunity to recognize expressions and hopefully talk about why the bear might be happy or frightened. Try using it with a mirror and perhaps Polaroids of familiar people showing the same emotions. Eventually see if your child can make (and understand) the expressions, then take their pictures!
