And really underneath the fun is a well thought out way of teaching, learning, connecting, sharing, and communicating with my son. I have found it to be useful during times when he doesn't know the words to describe his feelings, and has been able to point to a picture that illustrates it for him. My favorite memory was when we first got it, and were playing a game that went something like this: pick any card and talk about a time when you have felt that way.... SOooo I held up the super lovey cheerful, jumpy, big smile card and told my son that my heart feels that way every time I see him. He got the BIGGEST smile on his face. It was so cool.

The childs perspective is such an amazing one to listen to! My favorite part as well was hearing from my daughter describe why the various characters were experiencing those feelings.

M is really in to matching things. And since I'm not the best at helping him with his strong emotions, this game is just what we need right now. Thanks, friend! This looks excellent!
