At a local comic shop — this may not surprise anyone familiar to some extent with comic shops — is a shelf lined with canisters of dice.

One of these canisters is full of emotion d10s — ten-sided dice with either words or faces noting a variety of emotional reactions.  Health lessons involving emotions and roleplaying, art practice, writing challenges and character development exercises…the possibilities make me giddy, but because I didn’t have a classroom at the time, I never picked one up.

My supervisor wants to try doing some improv and acting games, and all I keep thinking about is this d10.  So I may have to invest in one, try it out with the kids, and see how it goes.
