Pack of 10 Those who struggle with verbal skills when they are upset or stressed. They can simply flip their bracelet from green to red. This shows that they need time to calm down without needing to speak. It can signal to caregivers that they need access to accommodations in the moment. Kids who are non-verbal don't use spoken language but are still able to communicate. Emotion Bands give them a way to show those around them that they’re having a good day or a bad one. This helps them create independence and feel more in control.
When Are Emotion Bands Useful? Emotion Bands can be useful in a variety of situations. Emotion Bands can help kids share their emotions in school settings, without disrupting the classroom. Flipping their bracelet can signal that they are becoming overwhelmed. This can alert an aide who can help them get to a space where they can regulate.
Occupational and physical therapy can be hard for kids. They may get tired, upset, or frustrated. All these emotions can make it harder to communicate with words. Flipping the Emotion Band can signal the therapist that the kid needs a break, and also let them know when the child is ready to resume work.
Emotion Bands could also find use in more customised ways if needed. When students need to show if they’re happy with a proposed solution or not, they could use the band to indicate that, for example. These bracelets are not suitable for chewing; for kids who tend to chew on rubbery or silicone items, use these bracelets with caution.
