Feelings & Coping Skills Card Set — 40 Laminated Cards | Ages 5–12

Name it. Then do something about it.

Most kids in therapy can tell you they feel "bad" or "mad" or "fine." They rarely have the words beyond that — and without words, they can't ask for what they need or choose a different response.

This 40-card laminated set bridges both sides. Each "Today I Feel..." card is paired with its own matching "When I Feel..." coping skill card, so the tool doesn't stop at identification — it connects the feeling to something actionable right in the same moment.

WHAT YOU GET:

• 40 laminated cards total (20 feeling cards + 20 matching coping skill cards)
• 3" x 4" — big enough for little hands, easy to spread out on a table
• Durable laminate finish — wipe-clean and reusable session after session
• Feelings covered: Happy, Mad, Worried, Sad, Scared, Confused, and more

HOW CLINICIANS USE THESE:

• Session opener — "pick the card that matches how you're feeling right now"
• Before & after — pick one at the start and one at the end to see what shifted
• When words are hard — pointing at a card is easier than explaining a feeling
• Match the pair — find the feeling card, flip to the coping skill, practice together

PERFECT FOR: ✓ Child and adolescent therapists ✓ School counselors ✓ Pediatric treatment and outpatient settings ✓ Trauma-informed and foster care programs ✓ Parents who want to continue the work at home
