Joy
«I feel so good!»
💛
What do I feel in my body?
I smile, I have lots of energy and I feel like jumping and sharing.
⏰
When does it appear?
When I achieve something, play, am with someone I love or get a present.
🌟
What can I do?
Enjoy it and share it! Telling someone the good stuff makes the joy bigger.

An idea for mum or dad
Celebrate their achievements with presence, not just rewards. Naming joy also teaches: "look how happy you are".
🚫
Better to avoid saying
"Don't be so loud" when they're just being happy out loud. Reining in joy without reason teaches them to hold it back instead of enjoying it.
Shall we play at recognising emotions?
