Emotional Swat Games for Kids Social Skills Learning

Perfect for emotional identification! You can pull one card of each color and explore if they’ve ever felt that emotion or if they don’t know what it is you can educate them! You could ask how they regulate when they feel that emotion, etc. The kids have such a fun time swatting the flies! So many different avenues you can go down with this game! Highly recommend for therapists working with clients on emotional identification, regulation, awareness, etc. very educational and very durable! You get so many emotions with amazing descriptions it’s definitely worth the money. I have used it with all my kiddo clients and even used just the emotional description cards with my teen clients! Very versatile!

I use this within my therapy office and kids are very engaged and interested in learning and seeking the different emotions with it. I would recommend coordinating feelings and emotions with the correct colors, however all in all it is easy to use and great to work with.

Fun game, but flyswatter broke after two uses

Swatter broke 1st try One of the fly swatters broke first time using it. The game is overall amazing for self regulation, support with understanding emotions and matching. Wish the swatters were not make as cheap. (Had a picture, amazon made me redo my review)

I think the overall concept for this game is pretty good. I think there was a missed opportunity here, though. The color coding is helpful for sorting the cards, but there doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to what the colors mean. My first thought was that maybe the colors were going to loosely follow zones of regulation, but they don't. On the instructions, the games show multiple "fly" cards with the same emotion, but in reality, there is just one. In order to get a good assortment of emotions, you have to use all of the colors, but then kids are tending to match the colors instead of focusing on the emotions. I just think that if we're going to go through the trouble of color coding things, the colors should mean something. I don't love the box they came in either...if you try to get everything back in the box, it just gets all jumbled so every time you pull it out, you have to sort the cards again. I've sorted mine and put rubber bands around them, but I'll have to find something else that will help store them. So, the 4 stars are really for the concept, but I don't find this to be something that I can use right out of the box. I'm guessing it won't be long before I just use the fly swatters with other activities and not the cards that came with this.

I’m a mental health clinician always on the lookout for different ways to connect with my kiddos and though the cards images were very “AI generated” according to one of my 5th graders, emotions swat was genuinely a super fun game to play and was a great way to connect with my youth clients!

Great game. My students love it

I am a therapist and use this in session to help kids grow their emotional vocabulary. It’s a huge hit.
