Ducklings: Making Face Art Crafts with Different Emotions

We reviewed the emotions we learned last week with flashcards and then the children were divided into two groups doing an art activity about emotions. The children were given round colored construction paper to represent the faces and also googly eyes, pipe cleaners  and colorful stickers as five senses on the face. The children made different facial emotions with the help of the teachers like happy, sad, scared, sick and surprised faces.

Purpose:

To develop their fine motor skills.

To learn about different senses on their faces (IPC All About Me: My Body)

To develop their early knowledge on emotions and emotion management.
