Nervous Emoji With Side Glancing Eyes and Wavy Mouth

A big round face fills the page with a thick outline. Two large circular eyes sit side by side, each with a small pupil that has a tiny highlight, and both pupils look a little off to the side. Above them are two curved, thick eyebrows. The mouth is a squiggly wavy line with small curved marks at each end, and a short little curve sits just below it like a lip or chin line. Together it reads as a nervous, worried, or uneasy feeling. The large open spaces on the cheeks and forehead are easy for small hands to fill in. Try this as a feelings activity: ask kids to pick colors that match how the face feels, then draw or color a second face showing the opposite mood. It also works well for a printable emotions chart at home or in the classroom.
