Read this article about My Mood Stars in Early Years settings.

The 8, soft, plush child hand-sized Stars depict all the emotions your child is going through with no distraction of race, gender or age.

The expressions on the 8 My Mood Stars’ faces are Happy, Sad Scared/Worried, Timid, Sleepy Surprised/Shocked, Silly and Angry.

(Of course, any name can be used for the Stars to coincide with the vocabulary that is used and known by the child.)

Children instantly fall in love with the Stars, confiding in them just as they would with their favourite soft toy.

This wonderfully tactile resource was originally developed to help those children with special educational needs by helping them recognise and acknowledge expressions and facial cues.

However, with the on-set of Covid 19 and all it brought, My Mood Stars have been helping all children. The impact of Covid  had a dramatic effect on children's learning and social development.

It is important to understand that children have not fallen behind, it is up to us to take a step back to join and support them in their stage of development.

My Mood Stars is proving to do just this, that is why My Mood Stars is becoming "An essential emotion resource."

• There is nothing quite like My Mood Stars on the market. The eight plush Stars are unique.
• Children find it easier to communicate their feelings when they have something to fiddle with. We’ve all seen children fiddling with their jumpers, sleeves or hair when trying to find the right words! My Mood Stars provide that comforting fiddle!
• The Mood Stars are available stand-alone or with their My Mood Stars board. The Mood Stars have been made from a purpose designed fabric that allows them to attach to Velcro.
• The Mood Stars are soft, tactile, and appealing. Unlike many other emotion resources there is no distraction of race, age, or gender. Only the expressions on the Stars’ faces.
• My Mood Stars can be worn as a badge to convey children’s feelings. This is ideal for children who are non-verbal.

My Mood Stars are a highly effective resource for those with special educational needs and learning disabilities.

It is a well-known fact that autistic children and adults find it difficult to identify emotions.

They find it hard to understand how other people think or feel.

They struggle to read expressions or body language and can act in a way that’s deemed to be inappropriate towards other’s experiences or situations.

They have difficulty in understanding and describing their own emotions.

Scenarios played out on the My Mood Stars work perfectly to help children (or adults) to understand their own feelings.

My Mood Stars are an effective way to help when many other methods of communication have failed or broken down.

My Mood Stars are unique in as much as they are a tactile resource that can be carried around just like other soft toys bringing comfort and reassurance.

My Mood Stars come alone or with their My Mood Stars board onto which they can pop on and off for extended play and learning.

There are also Friends of My Mood Stars, single Stars that can be used for special occasions such as Christmas My Mood Stars.

The My Mood Stars boards can be painted in five different colours, red, blue, green, purple, and grey.

Each set of My Mood Stars comes with a badge onto which the My Mood Stars stick,

(Not suitable for under threes.)

So, children can wear their mood pinned to their jumper, Tee or jacket.

Great for non-verbal children.
