Jealousy Toolkit: turn comparison into growth

Jealousy isn’t a “bad” feeling, it’s simply information. It shows us what we value and where we want to grow. The Jealousy Toolkit helps kids understand this complex emotion, learn to reframe comparison, and turn envy into inspiration. Through storytelling, creativity, and play, children build emotional awareness, empathy, and confidence in their own unique strengths.

Each box includes:

• The little book on jealousy: A rhyming story that explores what jealousy feels like, why it shows up, and how to use it as a signal for self-reflection and growth. Includes a QR code linking to a lively character video that brings learning to life through story and rhythm.

• Terrarium kit: Research shows that caring for plants fosters patience, mindfulness, and self-efficacy in children. This hands-on activity helps kids reflect on their own goals and growth, reminding them that nurturing what they have allows it to flourish - just like their own strengths and dreams.

• Bubble wand: Breath is one of the body’s most powerful tools for calming emotional intensity. This playful activity encourages mindful breathing and perspective-taking as kids “blow away” jealous thoughts. Each exhale teaches them to pause, breathe, and let go.

• Reframing dice: A fun, interactive tool that helps kids turn comparison into curiosity. Each roll encourages flexible thinking, gratitude, and resilience—teaching children how to reframe unhelpful thoughts into positive, empowering ones.

• Design your own goal journal (with Rainbow Pen!): Inspires kids to turn jealousy into motivation. Instead of wishing for what others have, children can set personal goals and celebrate their progress.

• Color-changing therapy putty: A tactile tool for stress release and emotional expression. The changing colors remind kids that emotions are temporary and always shifting.

• Reading materials, puzzles, jokes & activities: Extend learning through reflection, humor, play, and conversation to help children understand that jealousy can be transformed into self-discovery.

TheJealousy Toolkit teaches kids that jealousy isn’t something to hide, it’s something to understand. By exploring, creating, and reflecting, children learn to turn comparison into curiosity, appreciation, and growth.
