About this word search

Young children have big feelings, and naming them is the first step to handling them. Stoked is a Kiwi word for really happy, and children here hear it often from parents and teachers.

The grid is ten by ten and every word runs to the right or straight down. Scared and Stoked are the longest with six letters. Sad and Shy have only three. Happy has a double P, and Angry, Happy and Shy all end in Y.

Point to each word after finding it and ask the child to make the face that goes with it. Then talk about a time they felt that way.
