Learning Resources Big Feelings Pineapple - 30 Pieces, Ages 3+ Social Emotional Learning Toy For Boys and Girls, Body Awareness, Toddler Learning Toys

I love this pineapple so much! It is so adorable, and I love the potential for learning emotions through play! The top of the pineapple comes off so all the pieces can store securely inside, which makes me super happy. The arms only fit in the arm holes on the side of the pineapple (or inside for storage). There are so many pieces for making different facial expressions on the front or back of the pineapple. You can get a little silly and combine pieces from different expressions as well. The pieces themselves are rather small. They’re proportioned perfectly for the pineapple, but they are definitely choking hazards if you have littles who like to put things in their mouths. The pieces are made from a rubbery feeling plastic. I like that they’re not made from a hard or brittle plastic. They seem like they will last for a long time. I do worry about some of the eyebrow pieces though. I hope a kiddo doesn’t decide to bite part of one off one day. You just never know with kids. But aside from teeth or scissors, I think these will hold up super well, and even biting the pieces would take a lot of effort to tear them.We are super excited about this toy and plan to add it to our at-home preschool curriculum! It would also be a great quiet toy for waiting rooms, airplanes, or church if your kiddo is good at keeping track of small pieces. You could also consider putting the pieces in a separate plastic container for a situation like this, something more flat like a sandwich-sized tupperware so kiddos can see all the pieces easier without dumping them out. Super great toy though! I would totally give it as a gift! It comes in a cute Learning Resources cardboard box as well with all the pieces in a plastic bag.Brooke

I bought this to help my 3-year-old learn and appropriately express emotions and feelings. She absolutely loves it, as do I. There are so many pieces, to which I'm usually averse because of cleanup and losing parts. Fortunately that hasn't been an issue, and in fact the variety/quantity is what makes this toy really special. Way better value than a certain tuber-headed one-trick charlatan. The pieces stow easily and quickly enough making playtime that much more fun. The only real concern here is the parts are a little small for those kids who like exploring the world through their mouth.

The media could not be loaded. This was a great addition to my virtual classroom. It's a great hall when communicating with young children. It kind of helps break the ice with them and gives them a giggle. I like how it holds all the extra pieces inside.

My daughter and I like this quite a bit, I do recommend it overall, and I think the positives are well stated here. Cute, lots of expressions, packs into itself, nice quality material... so I'll mention the meh parts.First, the graphic printout it includes with emotions shows some faces you can't make (eyes and other parts that look different). And I'm not convinced some of the emotions match the pictures. My daughter really wants to recreate them but can't!The arms never stay in. They just fall right out. We've stopped trying to use them.Some of the parts are hard to put in and take out, some fall out easily. Depends on the one.I wish the head topper could latch into place so it keeps everything inside. It would make it a viable toy to bring on trips or to the restaurant, but without that, it opens up and everything falls out. I have to keep it all in a plastic bag.Overall, a good toy and better than a lot of the junk on Amazon. But definitely falls short in some areas.

I am a RBT and work with Autistic clients. This pineapple is great to work with younger clients. The enclosed pictures and matching feelings helps open dialogue about how they are feeling and what it looks like. I love that it is two sided to show opposite feelings. My clients have loved the mirror to look at themself in the mirror.

Very fast delivery and nice item

It's supposed to be a kids' toy, but is also an awesome desk accessory. Fun to use and super cute.

My toddler loves this pineapple! Consider it an upgraded version of the old potato head..they can put them together switch out the “emotions” which makes it an easy toy to teach the kiddos about emotions (I love that they can compare the pineapples face with their own face (with the mirror).I’m always on the hunt for quality toys that bring in educational value, especially social emotional learning. My daughter is on the spectrum and it really does help them recognize facial expressions and what they might mean. All in all..you can’t go wrong with this one!
