Guest Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 Welcome brozy1, I like your idea of the masks can't think of a story at the moment but I know a song about that. What would make you happy, What would make you glad, What would cheer you up, When Your feeling sad. I would like to ride a bicycle, I would like to ride a bicycle, I would like to ride a bicycle, All day long. That would make me happy, That would make me glad, That would cheer me up, When I'm feeling sad. If you need the tune let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rea Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 Hi Brozy1, off the top of my head, 'Something Else' cant remember the autor, about being different. 'Beware of the Bears' is my favourite,anger, surprise, shock, glee, scared. Cant think of any more at the moment I'm in a rush (again!) 'I love you Blue Kangaroo' unhappiness, jealousy, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Running Bunny Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 Rainbow Fish is good for feelings, depending on the age of the children - as the fish with the shiny scales is sad as he has no friends to play with and then realises that by sharing his shiny scales he can make other fish happy too (let that be a lesson to all of us!)

Guest Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 There's a short book (not really a story) called How do you feel? which looks at a host of feelings that small children might encounter. By a curious coincidence, I am reading 'I'm Sorry' by Sam McBratney, to my children tomorrow, which we will follow up by a circle time thinking about what we might say sorry for, which will undoubtedly include feelings - hurting other people's feelings etc. It doesn't cover all that many feelings, but does explore happy, sad, angry, lonely & probably others, so its not too bad.
