Super cute twist on Go Fish! You act out the emotion of the card you wanna match. This would be great for teachers to have in their classrooms. Great illustrations and kids find it fun to act out the different emotions. Cards are vibrant and emotions are also labelled which is great in case you don't understand the emotion. Fun and educational!
I got this card game to use in my classroom. It’s a nice twist on the classic Go Fish, by adding emotions to help teach children about the various feelings they may be experiencing. Game play can range from 2 to 6 players and the optimal age is 6 and up. Each session doesn’t take very long to play, and children can act out the feelings to collect cards which is a learning experience with real-world value. The cards are made well and have many different pictures of children expressing various emotions. I’m looking forward to playing this version of Go Fish with my students this year.
This game is a major disappointment, especially for a product designed to be a social-emotional learning tool. The concept of combining the simple game of Go Fish with different faces and feelings is a great idea in theory, but the execution is a complete failure.
The core issue is that the game is massively overcomplicated. This isn't just my opinion; I had several other adults read the instructions, and every single one of them came to the same conclusion. The rules are so convoluted that they completely miss the mark for the targeted age ranges, despite the instructions including different variations for different ages.
Instead of being a fun and simple way to teach children about feelings, the game is too confusing for young kids to grasp, and far too difficult for adults to explain to them. Ultimately, what should have been a simple and effective tool is rendered unusable by its overly complex design. It's a shame, as the potential was there, but it was lost in a sea of unnecessary rules.
This Go fish game is interactive and fun, especially once everyone gets the hang of it. It's a bit different from the regular Go Fish, as it focuses on facial expressions and emotions which makes it great for social emotional learnings. It did take us a little time to understand the difference between different emotions and match the expressions, but once we got going, it turned into a great group activity. Its a nice way to engage kids and adults while teaching emotional awareness. This a great game for classroom and home with some serious fun.
The downside is, the learnings curve to understand those emotions might make it confusing. You need patience to continue playing and once understood, it is a good fun game.
This GoFish set of emotions cards is excellent for helping neurodivergent individuals children to identify emotions and body language of themselves and others.
The cards are split between cards with photos on them and scenarios.
These work well with ABA and other therapeutic models.
