Not what I expected; description for number of players was misleading.
I don't like writing a negative review but I was very disspointed by this and returned it. I found the drawings too ambigious to accurately display the intended emotions. I had children state that the child was sleepy, when the card was displaying "happy" because the smiling child had their eyes completely closed. I was also disappointed that the product description claims it’s for as few as 2 players, but when you read the instructions you learn that you can not play the trading game with less than 3 people. If you play with two players you merely use it as a memory match game. I already have a number of emotions memory match games, and was looking for something different. I was unable to use this, as I am a counselor who typically works with one child at a time. The third complaint I have is that the cards are quite stiff and bend and crease easily--they wouldn't have lasted long had I decided to keep them. I need durability in a therapy game, as I use them with many children. I am sure this is a game with a lot of potential, but it didn't serve my purposes. I will add photos later if I can, as I took some photo's before returning it.

Great Therapeutic/ teaching Tool
I am a child and adolescent therapist and I love this deck. The suggestions for use are good. I use them in individual sessions with client for psychoeducation about feelings and how to recognize feelings in others. Great for improving EQ! I would like it if the cards were more like playing cards. They are too thick to shuffle well.

cute
I used these for speech therapy! It's a cute game,but more targeted for older children. I did modify it a lot and it was fair
