Tactile Toys and a Highly Effective Developmental Resource
The eight *My Mood Stars enable children to immerse themselves in imaginative play, either by themselves or with others. This offers a fun opportunity for children to talk about how they are feeling. The Stars, Timid, Sad, Angry, Happy, Sleepy, Surprised, Scared, and Silly can be used to set the scene for endless stories and games to be played with a downloadable activity sheet.
*My Mood Stars are made of Velboa and Tricot fabric both of which are biodegradable at the end of their lives.
My Mood Stars have proved to be a very effective toy for encouraging children to talk about and acknowledge their feelings as well as the feelings of others.

The Idea Behind My Mood Stars
Self-confident children in touch with their feelings find it easier to flourish in social situations. Indeed personal, social and emotional development and communication are key aspects of the Early Years Foundation Stage in the UK. Children who understand and can express and manage their own emotions, as well as those around them, are more likely to develop a positive sense of self and be assured and inquisitive learners.
