Just like a ferris wheel goes round and round,
Our feelings can also go up and down!
So hop aboard our ferris wheel,
Which carriage best shows how you feel?

This is the Feelings Ferris Wheel. It's here to help young children learn about emotions. This is our take on the traditional feelings wheel, a tool used by professionals and psychologists to help children identify their emotions. Our Feelings Ferris Wheel also gets your children thinking how they can regulate their emotions, if they're in the sad carriage for example, what can they do to change into the happy carriage?
