Emotion pompoms
Soft balls of wool, one for each feeling.
A pompom is nice to hold. Giving each one a feeling means the child can hand you an emotion instead of having to explain it.
Step by step
-
Wind the wool
Around the fork, forty times or so. Keep going.
-
Tie the middle
A short piece of wool through the fork, pulled tight.
-
Cut the loops
A grown-up cuts both sides. Then fluff it up.
-
Give it a face
Two eyes. That is enough for it to be someone.
Uga’s tip
On a hard day, holding the right pompom can be easier than finding the word.
