Making Faces: A First Book of Emotions
Making Faces: A First Book of Emotions introduces young children to five basic emotions: happy, sad, angry, surprised, and silly. Through simple photographs and interactive prompts, this sturdy board book encourages babies and toddlers to notice facial expressions and begin connecting them to feelings.
Each left-hand page features a close-up photograph of a baby's face against a clean white background, helping young children focus on the details of each expression. On the opposite page, children are invited to find the matching face among a group of babies, strengthening observation and visual discrimination skills.
The built-in mirror adds an interactive element, encouraging little ones to imitate the expressions they see and explore their own facial movements. As children copy smiles, frowns, surprised looks, and silly faces, they begin developing early emotional awareness and facial recognition skills.
With its simple format, engaging photographs, and durable board-book design, Making Faces offers a playful introduction to emotions for babies and toddlers who are just beginning to notice the feelings expressed on the faces around them.
