📌 Important Notes:

• Recognizing emotions involves more than identifying facial expressions. A person's appearance or behavior may offer clues, but it does not always reveal how they feel.
• Encourage children to consider different possibilities and recognize that people may express the same emotion in different ways.
• The goal is to develop emotional vocabulary and awareness, not to teach children that every feeling has one required expression.
