Create a near-endless cast of characters from printed images of leaves, ribbons, coins, and various other found objects. Matched "face" pieces feature photographs of objects found at the seashore and on the streets of New York that can be arranged to create expressive faces.
By engaging in this activity, children develop the ability to identify and express characteristics of human emotion through the facial expressions they create using the pieces. This is an especially constructive process for children who struggle to relate to emotion in others or have difficulty expressing their own feelings.
