This How I Feel feelings chart is a clear and child-friendly emotions chart PDF designed to help children, kids and young people recognise, name and talk about their feelings. It visually groups common emotions such as happy, sad, angry, scared, confused and tired, with simple words that support emotional literacy and emotional awareness in everyday situations.
The chart supports children to build emotional vocabulary, understand different feelings and link emotions to practical coping strategies such as talking, resting, moving, drawing or asking for comfort. This makes it a useful feelings and emotions tool for supporting wellbeing, behaviour, self-regulation and emotional development.
This downloadable feelings chart PDF works well in direct work, classrooms, therapy sessions and family settings. It is suitable for parents, carers, teachers, social workers and other professionals who support children with emotional expression, behaviour, relationships and mental health. It can be used as a daily check-in, a discussion prompt, or a visual support for children who struggle to explain how they feel.
