Why Turkish emotion cards?

Children often express feelings most easily in their home language. These cards introduce feelings such as happy, sad, angry and excited with pictures and Turkish words, helping children name what they feel.

English translations on the cards make them a practical way to support Turkish at home for bilingual families and Turkish families living abroad. Use them for daily feelings check-ins, a calm down corner or games.

How to use it

Print and cut out the cards; laminate them if you like.
Do a short daily “how are you feeling?” check-in and ask your child to pick a card.
Match the feelings of story characters to the cards.
In bilingual homes, try the Turkish word first and then the English one.

Tips for parents

Repeat feeling words naturally during the day.
Name your own feelings with the cards to model it.
Short, playful sessions work best.

These printables are general resources for everyday life; they do not replace individual assessment, diagnosis or treatment.
