Learning How Big Feelings Can Get Better
Big feelings can feel scary-but they don't have to stay that way.
Have you ever seen a child become so overwhelmed by anger, worry, frustration, or sadness that they couldn't think clearly? Flip Your Lid & Find Your Calm helps children understand why that happens and, more importantly, teaches them what they can do about it.

Through engaging storytelling, colorful illustrations, movement, journaling, and mindful practices, children learn that their emotions are not something to fear-they are something they can understand and manage.
Along the way, children will discover the powerful Four R's:
