One Cool Thing: Social-emotional learning through play
While looking at all the amazing new toys and gifts out this year to include in our new and improved Ultimate Birthday Gift Guide (it’s on its way!), I came across this just wonderful Shapes of Emotions social-emotional learning toy.
It seems like a clock at first but when you look closer, you see it’s a shape-sorting toy meets a social-emotional learning toy.

Kids can use the dial to identify and share emotions like happy, mad, and tired, but also more complex emotions like embarrassed, sad, frustrated, and shy.
On the back of each block is the word corresponding with the visual representation of that feeling, so they are getting in sight word practice, while also gaining skills in matching, counting, and color recognition. It’s such a unique baby shower gift or a perfect gift for a toddler — who, hopefully, will feel more happy than frustrated when they use it.
We found the best price on the Shapes of Emotions learning toy at Anthropologie, and it’s also available at Target.
