Portable Emotion Keyring
The included emotion keyring allows communication to continue outside the home.

This helps individuals communicate feelings in environments where the board may not be available.
For communicating everyday needs such as drink, snack or toilet, see our Basic Needs Communication Keyring.
Designed for Clear Visual Communication
SoftSignals tools use a consistent design system where tags fit neatly inside the board squares. This structured layout helps create a predictable and visually organised communication system.
Clear visual boundaries make it easier to focus on the selected message without distraction.
This set is also compatible with the Emotion Communication Board, allowing individuals to identify emotions visually before building a message on the I Feel / I Need board.
Wall Mount Ready
The board includes mounting strips and magnetic tape, allowing you to place it on a wall, desk, or fridge.
We supply both mounting options loose so customers can apply them in the way that best suits their environment.
Many families combine emotional communication tools with structured routine supports such as our Daily Routine Board.
If you’re building a complete visual support system, you may also find the Visual Routine Starter Kit helpful for structuring daily activities.
