The Emotions Communication Panel helps young children express and understand how they feel. A range of bright emoji symbols lets children point to the emotion that matches their mood. Because the panel sits at an accessible height, every child can reach it easily. It supports communication with teachers, carers and friends, both in and out of the classroom.
Key features of the Emotions Communication Panel
- Bright emoji graphics covering a wide range of emotions
- Accessible panel height for wheelchair users and young children
- Rear printed polycarbonate graphic that resists fading
- Durable two colour HDPE panel construction
Because the panel relies on images rather than words, children can show how they feel without needing to explain it out loud. This suits non-verbal children and those still building their vocabulary for emotions. It also helps children who find it hard to recognise or name a feeling in the moment. As a result, staff can check in with pupils quickly and respond to what they see.
Schools and SEN settings often fix this panel near a classroom entrance or a quiet area for emotional check-ins. Pupils can point to the panel before or after a lesson to show how they are feeling. Over time, this builds a shared, visual language for emotional wellbeing across the school. It also gives busy staff an easy, natural opening to ask a child how their day is going.
Built to last
The Emotions Communication Panel is built to the BS EN 1176 playground equipment standard, so schools and councils can specify it with confidence. Two colour HDPE resists weather, impact and fading, while the rear printed graphic keeps its colour for years of outdoor use. Caloo designs the panel as part of a wider range of play panels, so it combines easily with other inclusive activities.
