Feel Calm gives toddlers a gentle way to understand what’s happening in their bodies when feelings feel big. Instead of pushing emotions away, the book validates them and offers simple, age-appropriate ways to slow down and reset.
We chose it because it helps families normalize feelings beyond happiness. It introduces early mindfulness and grounding techniques through playful visuals and clear, reassuring language. The story moves from chaos to calm in a way young children can follow, reinforcing the idea that feelings come and go, and that learning how to pause is a skill that can be practiced.
As a board book, it’s sturdy, approachable, and designed for repeat use.
