For children who are learning to name big feelings

Does this feel familiar?
- Big feelings take over before your child knows what is happening.
- They struggle to name what they feel, so it comes out as tears, shouting or shutting down.
- You want simple, repeatable tools they can actually remember in the hard moment.
A gentler way to understand big feelings
The Feelings Remote gives children four small buttons to press when everything feels too big: Name It, Pause, Breathe, Ask for Help.
Through Luna and Milo's story, children learn that all feelings are okay - and that there are calm, kind steps they can take when big feelings arrive.
Created with autistic, ADHD and highly sensitive children in mind, the story uses simple language, repetition and visual learning to make emotional regulation tools easy to remember.
