Inside Out 2 Emotions – Sandtray Miniatures
Bring the emotional world of Inside Out 2 to life in your Sandtray sessions with this expressive set of emotion-based miniatures. Featuring Joy, Sadness, Anger, Fear, Disgust, and the new emotions introduced in the sequel, these figures offer clients a concrete, visual way to identify, externalize, and explore their internal emotional experiences.
Positively, these miniatures support emotional literacy, self-awareness, and connection. They can symbolize healthy expression, curiosity about feelings, empathy, and personal growth as emotions work together rather than in opposition. Clients may use them to show balance, emotional teamwork, or growing capacity to hold multiple feelings at once.
On the more challenging side, these figures can represent emotional overwhelm, internal conflict, boundary struggles, or feelings that feel too big, confusing, or misunderstood. The presence of multiple emotions allows clients to safely explore tension between feelings—such as joy and sadness coexisting, or fear and anger competing for control.
In Sandtray therapy, this set is especially effective for exploring boundaries, identity development, emotional regulation, transitions, and relational dynamics. It is well-suited for children learning to name emotions, adolescents navigating complex inner worlds, and adults engaging in inner-child or parts-based work. The familiar characters help reduce defensiveness and invite playful yet meaningful storytelling.
These miniatures create an accessible bridge between pop culture and therapeutic insight, making emotional exploration feel engaging, safe, and deeply human.
Size: Ranges 1 inch to 1 1/2 inches
These miniatures hail from Pixar and the Disney Store.
