About How Do They Feel?

Three faces, and one word: happy, sad, cross, surprised, sleepy or silly. Which face feels that way? Each face is drawn so the eyebrows, eyes and mouth all change together — the way a real face works — so a child learns to read the whole expression rather than just look for a smile. No timer and nothing to lose.
