Abstract
In early and middle childhood, the development of social and emotional skills is crucial. Traditional approaches often rely on curriculum-based, teacher-led methods, which may restrict children’s interactions and independent exploration. On the other hand, technology-enhanced solutions typically focus on recognizing children’s emotions without truly helping them to understand their feelings in a meaningful way. To address this gap, we introduce EmotionBlock, a novel physical toolkit with wooden blocks specifically designed for children aged 3-6. EmotionBlock encourages the development of emotional management and social skills through immersive storytelling and introspection. This hands-on approach enables children to engage in unstructured exploration and narrative creation, while simultaneously offering adults a tool to guide and support the learning experience.
