Give a feeling a color.
Choose a feeling from your day. Draw its color, shape, or weather. Share why you chose it—or keep your picture just for you.
A story ends.
A conversation begins.
Simple activities to make a little more room for feelings. Try them together after reading, or enjoy a quiet moment on your own.
PICK A FEELING, START A CONVERSATION
What feeling would you like to explore?
There are no perfect answers. You can share, draw, or simply think.
Collect a small joy.
Think of one ordinary thing that made you smile. Write it on a slip of paper and save it in a jar to revisit another day.
Finish a sentence.
Take turns: “Today I felt…” and “Tomorrow I’m looking forward to…” Listen without needing to fix or change the answer.
