Feelings Word Search & Coloring Activity • Printables for Kids

Are you looking for a calming, low-stress activity to help your students practice Social Emotional Learning (SEL) vocabulary? This isn't your typical blocky word search grid! I designed these unique "Find and Color" puzzles to combine vocabulary retention with the relaxing benefits of coloring.

What makes this resource unique:

Unlike standard square word searches where students simply circle a word, this activity features a circular layout centered around a high-quality, expressive 3D character.

• Visual Connection: Students look at the character's facial expression to identify the emotion (e.g., Happy, Sad, Angry).

• Spelling & Focus: They must scan the ring of letters to find the matching word.

• Fine Motor Practice: Instead of just drawing a line, students color in the outlined letters. This requires more focus and helps improve fine motor control and hand-eye coordination.

What is included:

This printable PDF contains 10 different emotions. It is a fantastic resource for helping students connect written words to visual social cues.

Print these out to add a splash of color to your vocabulary lessons!
