Created by a Jess O'Garr, clinical psychologist and Dr Al Griskaitis, psychiatrist (with help from our own kids!), the Feeling Cards for Kids are a fun and practical tool to help children recognise, understand and talk about their emotions.

With 80 beautifully illustrated, colour-coded cards—covering six core emotion families plus essential regulation skills—these cards give children the language and tools they need to express themselves and feel more in control.

Each card includes:

• A clear, kid-friendly feeling word
• A simple explanation in child’s language
• Body clues to help identify the emotion
• Gentle “watch-outs” for emotional traps
• Helpful strategies for managing the feeling

Plus, the 7 bonus "Feeling Skills" cards teach calming techniques like deep breathing, grounding, self-validation, and more.

Perfect for:

• Families and caregivers
• Classrooms and educators
• Psychologists, therapists & wellbeing teams
• Emotional literacy programs (SEL)
• Anyone supporting children to thrive

Whether you're using them at bedtime, during a meltdown, in therapy, or around the dinner table, these cards make big feelings easier to talk about—and much easier to manage.
