Combine a veterinarian theme with feelings practice using this Veterinarian Feelings Dough Mat! Children will choose an emotion card, identify the feeling and use play dough to recreate the veterinarian’s facial expression on the blank mat.
This hands-on activity helps children notice how facial expressions can show different emotions while giving them extra fine motor practice. Children can also use dry-erase markers to draw the expressions once the mat is laminated.
Twelve emotion cards are included:
- Mad
- Sad
- Happy
- Sleepy
- Surprised
- Silly
- Annoyed
- Excited
- Worried
- Loved
- Sick
- Calm
Print, cut and laminate the veterinarian mat and emotion cards for repeated use during a community helpers theme, animal unit, feelings activity or learning center.
