Looking for a coping skills workbook that helps kids identify their feelings? If so, you’ll love our Feelings Tool-book! Jam-packed with effective calming strategies, your students, children, or clients are guaranteed to find helpful self-regulation tools that they can use the next time they feel strong emotions. Perhaps best of all, this interactive workbook is filled with fun and colorful illustrations! Consequently, making it super accessible for emerging readers, ELL students, and emotionally dysregulated kiddos to use.

This social emotional learning workbook also features many interactive parts. On top of naming their feelings and choosing an appropriate coping tool, children also put together an action plan, For example, they identify who they can talk to when they feel a certain way. Then they write about what the feeling is telling them that they might need. Next, they choose a helpful strength statement or positive affirmation. In addition, there are sections to write about when they feel a certain emotion, body sensation clues, and accompanying feelings.

Why Teach Kids About Coping Tools

When you teach kids how to use helpful coping skills, they learn how to relate to uncomfortable feelings with self-compassion. Even though self-regulation skills do not necessarily get rid of stressful situations, they can help children make better choices. Additionally, using healthy coping strategies helps students to build on their strengths and develop resiliency.

WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING

This was a great addition to my calm down box. I especially loved that it gave the students different ideas of ways to calm down based on how they were feeling. I laminated the book so that it could be used over and over again by students with a dry erase marker.

This book is loaded with awesome coping strategies/SEL skills and mindfulness strategies! I always feel overwhelmed when trying to decide what to purchase from WholeHearted School Counseling, because I could quite literally purchase her entire store. I own MANY of her resources, which all are thorough, comprehensive, creative, and unique. This resource is no exception! Thank you for creating and selling on TpT!

This is a wonderful resource. The focus on accepting feelings as visitors and focusing on what we can control to not let them overwhelm us is great.

The workbook is very engaging and full of ideas on creating an action plan on how to help yourself with any feeling, positive or negative. My students were able to understand the material and stay engaged in the discussion about it.
