Feelings Blob Cards

There are several possible exercises to use with the young person to encourage them to express and think about their feelings more often. The session refers to using blob feelings cards but if you don’t have these you could use emojis or print out some facial expression pictures. You can use these exercises as part of your weekly check in with the young person. This also allows them the opportunity to get any worries or concerns off their chest before starting the rest of the work. It also helps to improve the young person’s emotional literacy. This will really help them prepare for later sessions which require the ability to recognise emotions.
