With 60+ definitions to help improve emotional literacy. This HUGE hardcover book with over 140 pages, is all about our children learning to recognise and label emotions and feelings.
Join Aroha and her friends as they share how different emotions might feel in the body and how each emotion might be helpful. This emotions dictionary is all about helping children find the words for how they truly feel. Learning to recognise and label our emotions correctly is such an important skill for life.
Giving our children this language helps to build emotional literacy. It is a gift to give children the tools to know how to recognise what they truly feel and that is it okay to feel all emotions. When they know that no emotion is ‘good’ or ‘bad’ and that all emotions provide messages, then it takes away any attachment to that emotion being part of who they are.
We may have experienced this ourselves being labelled ‘naughty’ or ‘out of control’ due to feeling angry a lot. However, this behaviour is just a way for a child to communicate. Diving deeper into why they are acting that way, why they may be feeling the things they are, can help us find some answers with our child. It can also help us find ways to help them empower themselves with tools to feel better.
Use this book to start conversations about different emotions. If you can, give examples of things you have experienced. When you see a child experiencing an emotion, help your child label it. “Are you feeling ... right now?”
This book can be used with children from 5 years of age up to 100+ as everyone might get something from the book.
There are over 200 emotions and so we couldn't include them all in just one book, however, this book is the most extensive book about emotions for children.
Shipping
It is important to us to use packaging that does not add to plastic waste issues that we have in the world. We use cardboard boxes that can be re-used in your garden as a great weed mat whenever we can but due to a huge number of our books getting water damaged we have had to opt for a recycled plastic option for some books. We also use a brown eco tape which can go into your compost.

Through lockdown this has been a great tool to check in with my own feelings and to ensure I am in the best position to help the wh_nau I support. Cant wait to use this in practice when levels permit.
Best investment I made all my life , everyone should have this
This book is far beyond what I expected, it is beautiful in every sense. My children and I have loved looking through the book so far and I can not wait to share it with other children and teachers I work with
How amazing is this book! I have not only recommended it to fellow parents with children but also for adults and family members. This awesome book is not only helping my daughter understand that it's OK to feel the way we do but also it's helping me recognise and understand my emotions as well. Thank you!
A smooth process from start to finish. Clear information on the books and posters, followed up by an easy and straightforward purchasing process, with excellent communication and delivery. I love the books and posters and would highly recommend.
