Strategy Cards

Helping children regulate their emotions isn’t about stopping feelings. It’s about giving them simple, practical strategies they can use when feelings become big.

The Kingdom of Colourful Feelings Strategy Cards help children develop healthy emotional regulation through engaging, child friendly strategies that are easy to understand and simple to use.

Each beautifully illustrated, double sided card introduces one practical strategy. The front provides a clear visual prompt for children, while the reverse offers guidance for adults, making it easy to model the strategy, co regulate and support children with confidence.

Rather than simply helping children identify emotions, these cards teach children what they can do when they feel angry, worried, overwhelmed, sad or full of energy. As children revisit the strategies over time, they build a familiar toolkit they can draw upon both independently and with the support of a trusted adult.

Whether you’re supporting a difficult transition, a friendship challenge or a moment of frustration, these cards provide practical, meaningful support when it’s needed most.
