List of emotions

Feelings and facial expressions from happy to sad and all things in between.

Sis forSmile

You smile when you are happy. When you smile, the corners of your mouth point upwards, and sometimes your smile gets so big your teeth show, just like the girl in the picture.

Sis forSullen

Someone is sullen if they are in a bad mood but they stay quite still and silent.

Sis forSurprise

You are surprised when something happens suddenly that you did not expect. When you open a present and you don't know what is inside, it is a good surprise. The person in the picture is surprised.

Tis forTense

You are tense if you are worried or stressed about something. When you are tense you tighten up your muscles. Tightening your muscles on purpose is also called tensing them.

Tis forTired

You are tired when you are sleepy and need to go to bed, or when you have worked really hard and are exhausted and worn out. The little boy in the picture is very tired.
