Zones Exploration: Visit each emotion zone on the board to learn about the characteristics and emotions of the Blue, Green, Yellow, and Red Zones.

Challenge Cards: Answer intuitively designed questions that help children to learn more about their emotions and the zones and accept all feelings as normal.
