Teaching primary emotions to children in a classroom, daycare, or home setting is essential, as it helps them understand and communicate their feelings effectively. Learning about emotions can also expand a child's vocabulary. This hands-on activity set encourages students to explore and engage in discussions, allowing them to express themselves in a supportive environment.

Children who learn about emotions at an early age are more likely to develop strong social and emotional skills, which can have a positive impact on their academic and personal lives. It helps them better understand their feelings, allowing them to cultivate stronger relationships as they grow, while learning to recognize their emotions and communicate in a healthy and positive way.
