I'm so excited to share this giveaway with you guys; Sam and I have been having so much fun with our Feeleez game. Here's what the company says about it:
Feeleez are designed to teach children about feelings and in turn raise their emotional intelligence and awareness. Children who develop an understanding of their own feelings and the feelings of others are much more likely to experience successful and fulfilling lives. Furthermore, cultivating emotional intelligence is a vital part of creating a humane, peaceful and sustainable world.
I absolutely love the idea behind this game and have been surprised at how Sam took to it right away. It must be a natural instinct to want to understand other people and what they're feeling. This has been a great way to facilitate more talking about others' feelings and a greater awareness of his own feelings. He has just started vocalizing to me when he feels sad.
Feeleez is offering two products; the Feeleez game and a Feeleez poster. They suggest hanging it low on the wall so your children can pick which kid (or combination of kids) they are feeling like, learn new feeling words, and settle conflict all on their own. Love this idea!

scares me too."
