Big feelings can feel overwhelming, especially anger.
In this calming read-aloud, children meet Kai, who feels angry when his carefully built block tower comes crashing down. Through gentle storytelling, children learn that anger is okay, and that using words is a safe and powerful way to express big emotions.
This story helps children ages 4–8:
- Recognize what anger feels like
- Notice what big feelings feel like in their bodies
- Learn to pause before reacting
- Practice using words instead of hurting
Perfect for: parents and caregivers, classrooms and social-emotional learning, and calm-down or bedtime story time.
Part of the Big Feelings, Little Me series. Kai also appears in Big Feelings, Little Me: Frustration, where he learns the power of asking for help.
