Mood Board

An 11-piece wooden shape sorter where every shape is a character with a feeling: a cheerful bunny, a shocked worm, an angry pup. Each mood word is printed on the base board next to its matching slot, so sorting the sad face into place puts the word right beside it. Made from reclaimed rubberwood and hand-painted with water-based paints.

Emotional vocabulary can be one of the hardest things to teach a toddler directly. Mentari's Mood Board makes it something they can do with their hands: sort the sad face into its slot, see the word next to it, make the connection. The usual shape-sorter skills come along for free.
