Build a Little SEL ToolkitWhether you’re stocking a classroom, counseling office, therapy room, homeschool shelf, or the corner of your kitchen where everyone discusses “tone,” these tools are designed to make emotional learning easier, warmer, and more hands-on. Feelings and Dealings Card Game helps kids identify emotions through faces, body language, and social situations. Emotions Workbook for Kids gives kids 65+ activities to explore feelings, coping skills, calm, empathy, and connection. Color My Emotions Coloring Book provides a close-up study of facial expressions and body language while coloring. My Feelings Chart helps kids point to what they’re feeling when their words are still buffering. ABC’s of Emotions Storybook turns emotional vocabulary into a cozy read-aloud moment. Together, they make a simple SEL toolkit for now, summer, next school year, and those “everybody take one deep breath before we become a cautionary tale” moments. One licensed mental health counselor shared that the Feelings and Dealings cards “easily expand a child’s emotional vocabulary beyond happy, mad, sad.” Which is the whole point — because kids have more feelings than happy, mad, and sad. They also have jealous, frustrated, proud, worried, and “I wanted the blue cup even though I specifically said the green cup.”
Need a Quick Game for the End-of-Year Wiggles?We’ve also been sharing quick games you can play in under 10 minutes as part of our 30-Day Video Challenge — including classroom classics like Heads Down, Thumbs Up across our social media accounts (see bottom of email for links). These are the kinds of games you pull out when you have eight minutes to fill, everyone is buzzing like a fluorescent light, and your lesson plan has officially put on flip-flops. They’re simple, screen-free, low-prep games for classrooms, family nights, groups, parties, and those mysterious transition times when adults start speaking in phrases like, “Let’s make a choice we feel good about.”
