Silly Bird Emotion Cards

This is a collection of emotions expressed in the Silly Bird characters. They help individuals identify and share emotions. The character’s whimsical expressions make it light and easy.

Silly Birds are perfect for those who work with kids. Use the Silly Bird Emotion Cards to encourage conversation. Offer an invitation to pick one or several characters to express a feeling or talk about some event in their lives. They offer a great way to help children understand and talk about emotions and empathy.

If you do group programs, choosing a Silly Bird as a check in before an event or as a debriefing tool after an exercise can invite the richness of emotion to show up - it's such a great connector. Emotions are connected to story and the silly bird characters give a child (or adult) a wonderful way to tell a story and express an emotion.

For those who do creative activities with kids or adults, consider using the cards as a story telling or story writing prompt. Emotions help us relate to each other and they are what makes a story come alive - our own stories and those of others.

Silly Birds are non-gender or ethnic based which allows for greater flexibility.

"I wanted to let you know that we used the silly bird emotion cards for a group on Friday afternoon and it went so well! First of all, I just cannot say enough how much I love all the designs and colors on the cards. They are so perfectly thought out and depict each emotion so well. It was really helpful for our kids to learn new feeling words. What we did for the activity is we split into groups of three and each child chose a random card. They then shared with their group a time they felt that feeling. They also were asked to share about what they did to let it out if it was a heavy feeling, and what helped or could have helped them during that time. The activity went really well and many group members stated how great it felt to share with their peers about their their feelings. Thank you for creating such a great resource! We love it and will continue using them in our groups." ~~ Kathleen Lundwall, Betty Ford Colorado Children’s Program
