- Your 4-step meltdown reset, a simple path through the storm for you and for them.
- Six calm-down cards to print and cut for your calm corner.
- A gentle “how big is my feeling?” scale, to notice a feeling, not a behaviour.

Made for the hard moments

This free kit gives you the warm words and the simple steps to help your child feel big feelings safely, with you. It’s a gentle slice of our world of calm, screen-free printables and picture books.
