Feelings chart printable for kids, a calm corner kit with coping cards

This feelings chart printable for kids uses friendly hand drawn faces and gentle tools to help young children name big emotions and settle back into calm. It belongs to an 11 page calm down kit that also includes a feelings thermometer, coping cards, playful breathing games and a sign for your calm corner. You receive US Letter and A4 PDF files as an instant download, and nothing is shipped.

Practice together on easy days, so the tools are familiar when a hard moment comes.

How a feelings chart printable helps with big emotions

The chart has 16 faces paired with large, simple words, so even a child without the vocabulary yet can point to what they feel. A thermometer from 1 to 5 and a page about body clues show how big a feeling is and where it sits in the body. The cut-out coping cards and six breathing games then offer a clear next step.

A brief guide for parents explains co-regulation and offers phrases that help in the heat of the moment. Hang the chart at your child's eye level and try the tools together while everyone is calm.

Who this calm down kit is for

• Simple hand drawn faces and large, friendly words that young children can read easily
• The calm down cards fit 16 to a page, with dashed lines for cutting
