For parents whose child is struggling — and nothing you’ve tried seems to stick. Journals that meet kids where they are and actually get used.
You might be here because…
- You’ve been told your child has anxiety, ADHD, or is on the spectrum, and you’re looking for everyday tools that help
- Your child is struggling with a recent change — a new school, a move, a loss, or another transition
- Emotions tend to come out more at home than anywhere else — sometimes as sadness, frustration, or anger.
- Talking helps sometimes, but not consistently
- You want something supportive without making your child feel labeled or pressured
These journals are designed to support real kids in real situations — one page at a time.
What makes these journals different
These aren’t just blank journals with prompts added in. Each one is intentionally designed to support how children actually process thoughts and emotions — especially when talking isn’t easy. The structure gives kids enough guidance to get started, while still allowing them the freedom to express themselves in their own way. Some children write. Some draw. Some flip through slowly and come back later. All of that is okay.
It starts with noticing feelings, not explaining them
The earliest journals help children recognize what they’re feeling before asking them to put it into words.
Grows a child’s feeling vocabulary over time
As kids get older, the journals introduce more words for what they feel and how others might feel too.
Helps kids make sense of situations
Later journals guide children to connect feelings with thoughts and real-life situations in a way that feels manageable.
Breaks things down so kids don’t get overwhelmed
Short prompts, activities, and familiar page layouts help kids stay engaged without feeling like too much at once.
It doesn't require talking on the spot
Kids can write, draw, or reflect privately, which often makes sharing easier later.
It supports independence as kids grow
Older journals focus on routines, safe spaces, and building habits kids can carry on their own.

Let customers speak for us
I fell in love with the look of this book immediately. It’s designed for teens, but as an adult, I find it incredibly useful. The trackers are my favorite part—they keep me organized and focused. Truly a great resource for all ages!
I bought this book for my son because he was struggling and becoming increasingly angry. He reached a point where he wasn’t speaking about his feelings anymore, and as a parent, I was unsure what would help. This book provided the bridge we needed.
"As a social worker, I’m always looking for resources that support emotional development. I met the author while they were tabling at a bookstore and was immediately drawn to the character. I wanted something meaningful I could do with my own son to help him grow, and this book is exactly that—a beautiful, engaging way to build emotional intelligence at home."
"My son was immediately drawn to the characters at a local event at the YMCA, and I am so glad he was. I am very intentional about the images I put in front of him because I’m mindful of the type of man he will eventually grow up to be. It’s so important that he sees positive reflections of himself, and I love that these male characters are healthy and uplifting. This isn't just a book—it’s an investment in the man I am raising him to be."
