Help children explore their emotions with our colourful and engaging HASS / Personal Development feelings poster eyfs core resource. Designed for teachers and early years practitioners, this vibrant visual aid is the perfect tool to support Personal, Social and Emotional Development (PSED) in the classroom.
Our HASS / Personal Development feelings poster eyfs core features our friendly character, Leo the Lion, who helps children identify and name a range of common emotions, including happy, sad, angry, surprised, and calm. By using clear facial expressions and simple, age-appropriate language, this resource helps children build the vital vocabulary they need to express how they are feeling throughout the school day.
In line with the Australian Curriculum (ACARA) for Foundation, this poster supports the prime area of Personal, Social and Emotional Development. It encourages children to talk about their own emotions and recognise the feelings of others, fostering empathy and building strong social bonds. Teachers can use this resource during circle time, as a calming station prompt, or as part of a daily check-in routine.
This resource is tailored for learners working at the expected standard for their age group. To extend learning, we have included five questions to promote discussion:
1. Look at Leo the Lion. Can you point to the face that shows he is feeling happy?
2. How does your face change when you feel surprised?
3. Can you tell me about a time you felt very calm?
4. If a friend looks sad, what kind thing could you do to help them?
5. Why is it important to share how we are feeling with our teachers?
Download this HASS / Personal Development feelings poster eyfs core today to create a supportive, emotionally literate environment where every child feels heard, understood, and valued.
