Adventures in Feelings

A parent would reach for this book when their child is experiencing big, overwhelming waves of emotion that they cannot yet name or explain. It is particularly helpful during transitions, after a meltdown, or when a child seems withdrawn and unable to process a difficult day. The book serves as a gentle guide through the internal landscape of feelings, using relatable imagery to help children understand that emotions are like adventures: sometimes scary, sometimes exciting, but always temporary. By personifying emotions and providing a safe framework for exploration, it helps normalize the wide spectrum of human feelings for children aged 3 to 7. Parents will appreciate how it moves beyond simple happy or sad labels to include nuances like bravery, frustration, and empathy. It is an essential tool for building emotional intelligence and opening a non-judgmental dialogue between caregiver and child about the invisible things we feel inside.
