Unit 1: Managing Big Emotions – Complete Bundle (Ages 5–7)

Does your child have big emotional reactions but struggle to explain what they’re feeling or what they need?

Young children are still learning how to recognize emotions, notice the clues their bodies give them, calm themselves, and make thoughtful choices. This complete 8-lesson unit gives families and educators a supportive, age-appropriate way to teach those skills before, during, and after challenging moments.

Through relatable stories, visual teaching pages, guided conversations, and hands-on activities, children learn that emotions are not “bad”—but they can practice safe and helpful ways to respond to them.

No teaching experience is required. Simply download, print, and work through the lessons together.

Your child will practice how to:

• Name and recognize different emotions
• Notice physical clues connected to their feelings
• Identify what can make an emotion grow bigger
• Understand the connection between a calm body and calm mind
• Pause and make a more positive choice
