Kuwi and Friends Emotions Magnets
Helping tamariki understand and express emotions just got easier (and way more fun) with the Kuwi and Friends Emotions Magnets! The magic? When kids can name their emotions, they can tame them. That means fewer meltdowns, more problem-solving conversations, and healthier coping strategies at home and school. Empower your child to navigate their emotions with confidence, even when you're not there to guide them.
A must-have for emotional wellbeing at home, in the classroom, and beyond!
Why We Love It
We love this Emotions Magnet Set because it combines play with learning in a way that feels natural and fun for tamariki. As professionals across psychology, social work and education (and as parents!), we’ve seen how these magnets encourage kōrero about emotions, helping kids better understand and name their feelings. The visual and tactile nature of the magnets makes them especially helpful for younger tamariki or those who find verbalising emotions challenging.
How Can You Use It?
Here are three creative ways to use the magnet set:
Emotion of the Day: Place a magnet on the fridge or whiteboard to represent how tamariki feel each morning. Use this as a starting point for a kōrero about their day ahead and how they can navigate their feelings.
Storytelling with Feelings: Use the magnets to create stories about Kuwi and her friends (or any characters your tamariki love) experiencing different emotions. This helps tamariki connect feelings to actions and outcomes in a fun, imaginative way.
Emotion Matching Game: Lay out the magnets and ask tamariki to match them to situations or scenarios they’ve experienced recently, sparking reflection and sharing.
The Results We’ve Seen
Parents and teachers report that tamariki love using this set, especially because it turns emotional discussions into something playful and approachable. Tamariki feel more confident expressing themselves, and parents feel better equipped to support emotional conversations. We've seen tamariki build stronger self-awareness and empathy while enjoying the playful interactions the magnets encourage.
The Kuwi and Friends Emotions Magnet Set is a must-have for every whānau fridge or classroom whiteboard!
