The ego functions as a mediator between the id's primitive instincts and the superego's ideals and morality.

• No, our cards can be used independently of each other, and you do not have to start with Emotion Cards 1. You can start with Emotion Cards 2 if you think they will fit you better.

• The age instruction is precisely an instruction, but not a limit. It is you as an adult that can best determine what suits your child. Some two -year -olds are talk machines, some 40 year olds are few -worded mussels.

• No. We assign to a suitable starting age, but it is you as an adult who determines what is best suited. There is also no maximum age for Emotion Cards 1 and you do not have to switch to Emotion Cards 2 when the children turn six years. Emotion Cards 1 is valid from about three years and throughout life. Some of the best conversations we hear about are when children and their adults reflect on their emotions. Maybe as an adult, you would dare to try them with someone your own age?
