Who this list is for
This emotion wheel craft is for children identifying everyday feelings through a rotating paper wheel. It is an art and communication activity, not a clinical tool, and it works best when children can choose words and faces that make sense to them.
How to use this list
Give each child two white paper plates. Use printable emotion face templates, pencils, erasers, washable markers, and colored pencils to plan the face sections and labels. Cut a viewing opening or arrow from colored cardstock sheets and cardstock arrow strips with child-safe scissors. Glue decorative pieces with glue sticks, use rulers for straight arrow shapes, and connect the two plates with a round-head paper fastener so the wheel rotates.
Common mistakes
Do not treat the wheel as a test with right or wrong answers. Avoid fastening the plates too tightly, since the wheel needs to turn. Keep the emotion face template and the finished wheel simple enough that the selected section can be read easily.

When you are done
