English to Spanish translations [PRO]
Art/Literary - Education / Pedagogy / Education | | English term or phrase: "warm fuzzies"/"cold pricklies" | | These two terms are taught to elementary children to teach them how nicer it is for all to give a "warm fuzzy" instead of a "cold prickly". These will teach children to avoid peer pressure, making keeping friends, decision making and problem solving for now and in the future. |

12 mins confidence:   peer agreement (net): +1 | warm fuzzies/cold pricklies estimulos calidos y positivos/estimulos frios y negativos
Explanation:
I think that in spanish you'll need some kind of substantive and use "warm", "fuzzy", "cold" and "prickly" merely as adjectives. It would be easier and clearer. So, I propose the use of "incentive" ("estímulo"), so to say, the means with whom you can make a person react in some way. I would propose "estímulos cálidos y positivos" and "estímulos fríos y negativos".I hope I gave you some help...???
Cheers,
Millan Gonzalez

Explanation:
A warm fuzzy is not an incentive. It is simply a type of response given.
