Everyone needs to know how to name and express feelings. Each jar holds 101 little cards printed with “feelings words”—gleeful, insecure, grateful, angry, cranky, courageous, hopeful, and many more. Pull a slip and act out the feeling, or invite someone else to act it out. Use as discussion starters, journaling prompts, or icebreakers for groups. A fun way to encourage dialogue.

Customers find Feelings in a Jar helpful and fun for therapy sessions, especially for rapport building, teaching emotional awareness, and helping kids identify and act out feelings (including for social skills work). Some say it’s very useful and exceeded expectations. One reviewer felt it was too basic—mostly typed emotions that could be DIY—and better suited to more advanced clients, noting even some teens didn’t know the terms.
