Feelings – to feel is to be alive. Each life event involves feelings. We learn and develop our emotional world and the understanding of feelings through interaction with others. First of all with our primary care-givers, and gradually with others. From womb to tomb, it is a lifelong process of development and change.
Feeling recognition and understanding is an important building block of the world of emotions. For most people, feeling recognition in self and others is a natural, gradual process, which develops through interaction with others. However, for some, this process involves difficulty and therefore requires special intervention and daily training.
‘Our feelings’ is a game that addresses just that. It is a tool which helps develop social emotional learning. It includes 108 scenes depicting every day social emotional situations. It enables the child to learn feeling recognition and appropriate behavioral reaction to each situation. Thus, this tool allows gradual cognitive training and learning of our ever so complicated world of feelings and emotions.
As previously stated, the emotional world develops through interactions, this game too, should be played in interaction with others, namely with a care-giver, a teacher or therapist. The scenes provide a trigger for discussion and learning with the child.
The game includes a tracking screen, summarizing the child’s reactions, which assists in focusing further work goals.
