TOMYA Little Spot Mix and Match Kids' Craft Kit - Social Emotional Learning Activities - Sensory Play with Soft Felt Emotion Spots, Double-Sided Cards, and Easel - Based On The Books by Diane Alber

I loved the whole system of emotional faces, fabrics, and cutouts. Very fun and useful! Although I didn't use it for my purposes intended, it was well constructed, the colors vivid, and easy to assemble.

The Little Spots of Emotion have made a huge impact in my classroom and in turn our entire school and word continues to spread about them for social emotional skills. The Mix and Match Emotion Set is fantastic for many activities in the classroom from feelings check-ins to centers (morning work time, writing prompts, matching the faces, etc) to Peaceful Spots to help a child calm down and seriously so much more. My daughter thrives with the spots and had so much fun when I opened the box and let her play and mix up all of the faces.*there was a review about them not sticking. They stick with static with the felt. We had no issues getting them to stick and I actually appreciate that there isn’t Velcro or anything because I think it will make the product last!

I am a school social worker. I got the to use in my cross categorical classroom that I push into. All the kids in there have autism and are non verbal. Between using this to teach them basic emotions - angry, happy, and sad and your videos that they watch daily I am already seeing them begin to identify emotions to colors. Your stuff is truly incredible. I love that they match the face pieces to the spots to show emotions. Brilliant.

This is a great product for social emotion lessons. The only problem I have with it, is that the stand is not very sturdy and collapses under the weight of the square board and the circles/faces. I end up needing to hold it up or balance it on something else when running a group activity.

My clients love this activity.

I love this set and so do my students!! The pieces stick nicely when you rub them together. It’s perfect to display when reading the stories to the students. The students can build the Little Spot that matches and you can discuss which pieces are needed based on the descriptions of the characters in the stories. These are so awesome!!

This is such an important learning concept for children in the early childhood stage. I was very excited to receive this and thought the easel would be such a fun addition for the children to stick the pieces to. However, upon opening the product and trying it out, I was very upset at the quality of the easel. First of all, ANYTHING designed for young children, should be extremely well made. The pieces are very well made, nice thick felt, print is beautiful, but the easel is where the entire activity falls apart. You basically cannot use the easel at all. It is very thick felt and seems to be good quality. However, it is very lightweight and slides or falls when the pieces are placed onto it. Why would you make something for young children and make the most important piece flimsy? I am very disappointed and I feel the makers could have spent a couple of more dollars to make the easel stand out of wood, with rubber feet. The board could stay felt, but the easel is also made of felt and does not stand up to the pressure of pla ING pieces onto the easel board. Very disappointing, I couldn't even give it 4 stars....I had to go for 3 based on the obvious point of knowing the stand needed to be sturdy enough to support game play.

My students love little spot and when I brought this out, they were thrilled to make the little spots and mix and match the expressions. My students had no issues getting things to "stick" by rubbing the felt a bit to create static. Love it!
