This Social Story "All About My Feelings” is a lesson designed to help young children understand and recognize their emotions. In this story, we explore different feelings like happiness, sadness, anger, fear, excitement, and confusion. Each page shows how we can express these feelings and what to do when we experience them. The social story speaks about how some feelings are small and mellow and easier to manage, while others are big and strong and more difficult to control. The social story provides opportunity to students to provide input and participate in providing answers. The lesson uses the analogy of filling a balloon with air to explain the healthy expression of feelings. Lesson Tip: In order to make this lesson more fun and interactive with students, we recommend using a physical balloon to demonstrate the analogy of how filling up a balloon too much is just like holding in our emotions for too long and letting them pile up inside of us. You may also use the balloon to show how letting our emotions out too quickly causes the balloon to fly around out of control just like when we let our own feelings out too quickly and act out with behaviour (the kids will get a kick out of watching the balloon fly around the room!); alternatively, letting the air out slowly results in a calmer experience, just like when we let our emotions out slowly and feel more in control. By learning about our feelings, we can better communicate with friends and family, find ways to calm down, and ask for help when we need it. This 36-page social story/lesson conveys these themes using practical examples, activities, engaging visuals, and developmentally appropriate language. It is best suited to K-6, and special education settings. Let’s dive into the wonderful world of feelings together!
