Emotional Intelligence through Play
Welcome to the MGB x PRIXEL Emotional Intelligence through Play art activity. This is a special collaboration between My Good Brain and PRIXEL! These art activities gives children an opportunity to use their creative minds to transform PRIXEL’s stamp making kit into a tool for social-emotional learning.
Using PRIXEL’s innovative collection of stamp shapes, children will build different characters that depict various emotions.
PRIXEL is a modular, movable type printmaking system designed for play. With a collection of simple, geometric shapes, users can print illustrations, messages, or abstract compositions. By breaking things down into modular parts, PRIXEL helps reveal the hidden patterns and interconnectedness that exists in the world around us.
Meet the Emotion Monsters
Did you know that we have lots of emotions that live inside our bodies? Sometimes they can feel SO big and SO mysterious that they seem a little... scary. Like monsters!
Meet the Emotion Monsters: Joy, Sadness, Love, Fear, Loneliness, and Anger.
These Emotion Monsters have been spotted all over town, and everyone is a little spooked by them! But here's the secret: they aren't scary at all. They're actually trying to tell you something really important. They just need YOUR help to be understood.
Each Emotion Monster is wearing a disguise. By learning their clues, you can unmask what's really going on inside, and figure out how to help yourself when YOU feel that way too!
