8 Bright A4 Feelings Detective Posters® — £4.99

£4.99

Help children notice, name and understand their BIG feelings, one colour at a time.

Every child has BIG feelings, but they don’t always have the words to explain them. A tummy that feels funny, a cross face, tears that seem to come from nowhere: these are all clues.

Our Feelings Detectives® posters give children a bright, friendly way to work out what they’re feeling and share it with the grown-ups around them.

Meet the Feelings Detectives®

Each of our seven colour characters represents a different feeling:

  • Red feels angry

  • Orange feels tired

  • Yellow feels happy

  • Green feels unwell

  • Blue feels sad

  • Purple feels scared

  • Pink feels worried

Each of our seven colour characters represents a different feeling:

  • Red feels angry

  • Orange feels tired

  • Yellow feels happy

  • Green feels unwell

  • Blue feels sad

  • Purple feels scared

  • Pink feels worried

Children quickly get to know the characters and start using them to describe their own feelings. “I’m feeling a bit Pink today” can open up a conversation that might otherwise never happen.

Why they work

When feelings have a colour and a friendly face, they become less frightening and easier to talk about. The posters help children to:

  • Recognise and name their feelings

  • Understand that all feelings are normal and OK

  • Tell an adult how they feel, even when words are hard

  • Build the confidence to manage BIG feelings before they become overwhelming

They’re designed to make BIG feelings child-sized, and they follow the same approach we use in our Feelings Detective® programme, workshops and school curriculum.

Perfect for

  • Classrooms and nurseries

  • Calm corners and quiet spaces

  • Bedrooms and playrooms

  • Nurture groups and SEN settings

  • Counselling and therapy rooms

  • Childminders, tutors and home educators

How to use them

Display them where children can see them every day and invite them to point to the character that matches how they feel. Use them for morning check-ins, after playtime, at bedtime, or whenever a child seems unsettled. The more often children use them, the more natural talking about feelings becomes.

What’s included

8 printable posters in A4, supplied as a PDF ready to download, print and display straight away.

Instant download

No waiting for the post. Simply download, print at home, at school, or at your local print shop, and display.
