When debriefing after using the Kimochis Mixed Bag of Feelings, consider asking the following questions to encourage reflection and a deeper understanding of emotions:

1. Which Kimochi character did you connect with the most today, and why?
2. How did it feel to share your emotions with others using the Kimochis?
3. Can you think of a time recently when you felt the same way as one of the Kimochis? How did you handle that situation?
4. How do you think understanding your feelings better can help you in your daily life?
5. What did you learn about someone else’s feelings during this activity?
6. If you could choose one Kimochi to keep with you all the time, which one would it be, and how would it help you?
7. How can you use what you learned today to improve your relationships with others?
8. Was there a feeling that was hard to talk about? What made it challenging?
9. What surprised you about your own or someone else's feelings during the activity?
10. How do you think the Kimochis can help you in situations where you find it hard to express how you feel?

These questions are designed to help individuals or groups reflect on their emotional experiences and consider how they can apply what they've learned to their everyday lives.
