Mystery Feelings helps children to discover how others are feeling by identifying physical characteristics, or "clues" in their environment. When we understand how other people are feeling, it guides our interactions with them. Developing these skills early on in life helps to support positive peer interactions, self awareness, empathy, and emotional regulation.
