Colour Monster Feelings Check-In Board – Blank Templates for Early Years / PS1
This flexible, hands-on wellbeing resource is perfect for Early Years and PS1 learners, whether you’re in a classroom, home setting, or childminding environment. It’s designed to support emotional literacy and self-expression through a playful, story-inspired approach and ties in with the Welsh Curriculum.
You’ll get:
1 Title Page – “How are you feeling today?” style header for your display or board.
Colour Monster Discs – 2 per A4 page (perfect size for individual or small group check-ins).
Feeling Gradient Charts – 1 per A4 page, showing the main emotion with a gradient of similar words to extend vocabulary.
Emotion Check-In Pages – 1 emotion per A4 page, where children can pop their names, pegs, or photos to show how they are feeling.
Use with pegs, counters, photos, names, or drawings to help children check in with their feelings. Supports recognition of emotions, communication skills, and self-awareness.
These work brilliantly as a morning routine, circle time activity, or small group task and can be reused again and again across the year.
Links beautifully with AoLEs:
