When tears come and things don't go as planned, children deserve tools - not just comfort.

Growing up means running into moments that hurt: a lost game, a cancelled playdate, a broken toy, or a day that just feels heavy. Big Feelings: Sadness and Disappointment for Kids gives children the words, understanding, and practical strategies they need to move through those hard emotions with confidence - and come out the other side.

Written for early readers and read-aloud moments, this social-emotional learning guide walks children step by step through two of childhood's most common - and least talked about together - big feelings: sadness and disappointment.

Inside, children will learn:

  • What sadness actually is and why our bodies and minds feel it
  • The many things that can make us feel sad or let down - and why that's completely normal
  • That crying is healthy, brave, and a real way to release hard feelings
  • Simple, child-friendly ways to comfort and soothe themselves
  • How to talk about sad feelings with a trusted adult or friend
  • What to do when a friend seems sad - building empathy and kindness
  • What to do when sadness lingers longer than a day
  • Coping strategies and calming tools that genuinely help
  • That happiness always finds its way back - even after the hardest days
