Emo the Octopus, from artist Patty Iba, encourages social emotional learning between parent and child – helping kids understand and process each of their feelings in a fun and huggable way. Through the octopus’s eight arms, each representing a different emotion, parents can roll Emo’s sleeves up and down as they talk – helping young ones recognize individual feelings, while giving parents tools to regulate behavior through a meaningful, together-time experience. Pair it with our Emo the Emotional Octopus Board Book for the perfect storytime!
