The Kids Wheel

Because “use your words” only works if they know the words.

This is for the parents who are running on empty.   

For the teachers holding 25 kids' emotions while barely keeping track of their own.

For the therapists and caregivers trying to make emotional wellness feel less like a lecture and more like a conversation.

The Kids Wheel is a hands-on, no-fluff tool to help kids name, understand, and express what they’re feeling, especially when they don’t have the words.  

This tool was designed for ages 5–12, but age is just a starting point. We know that emotional development doesn’t follow a perfect timeline, especially for neurodivergent kids. So if your child is older or younger and this feels like the right fit, trust your gut. This tool is about meeting kids where they are, not where a chart says they “should” be. 

Colorful, clear, and made to actually get used, The Kids Wheel breaks down big feelings into something kids can point to, talk about, and feel empowered by. And you? You finally get a starting point. A way in. A pause in the chaos.

Durable, flexible, and kid-proof (yes, even for snack-covered fingers), this thing is built for classrooms, dinner tables, therapy offices, and after-school meltdowns.

Keep one in your bag. Tape it to the fridge. Slide it across the table when you’re too tired to ask, “What’s wrong?"

How it Works

Step 01

Identify the Body Sensation

Each petal on The Kids Wheel represents a general bodily sensation signified by the icon toward the center. Find the base that best represents what they are feeling in their body.

Step 02

Identify the Emotion

Move your attention to the rest of the selected petal. Read through the potential emotions and select the word or icon that best captures their emotional state.

Step 03

Take Action

Flip over the wheel to view the backside of that same petal. Read through the potential actions steps for dealing with the identified emotion and then, take action!

After engaging in the selected action, take a moment to see if they are feeling different than before, if the selected action seemed to help, or how it felt to express their emotion.
