How were emojis created?
What did this lesson make you curious about? What other questions do you have about emojis?
Emojis had to be invented, but you can find faces in objects all around you! Cars are a good example. The headlights of a car look like eyes and the bumper looks like a mouth! Can you find a sad car? A happy car? How about an angry car? See how many emotions you can find in car “faces” around your neighborhood!
