Step 2: Take the plate and trace six circles on the construction paper. Cut each one out.

Step 3: Draw a different "face" on each circle -- i.e. happy, sad, angry, scared, etc. Fill up all six circles. Cover with Contact paper.

Step 4: Cut the Velcro into one-inch strips and attach to back of circles. Place part of one of the Velcro strips in the middle of the poster board.

Step 5: Hang the sign on the outside of your preschooler's bedroom door, closet door or even the refrigerator. Clip the faces to the bottom of the board. Each morning, when your preschooler wakes up, s/he can hang up the face that is being felt that day. If that emotion changes thoughout the day, s/he can can change the face as well.
