Hi, how can we help?

About My Mama Says

What ages is it for?

Children ages 4 to 11. Brothers and sisters can share a kit and read the story together.

Who is it for?

Parents, teachers and therapists. It works at home, in a classroom or in a calm corner.

Where should we start?

Pick the feeling your family meets most often, or take the quiz to learn your child’s patterns first.

How involved do I need to be?

Each box includes parent guides to help you spark meaningful conversations about feelings.

Products

What is the QR code in the little book?

It links to a music version of the story, so your child can sing along.

What’s inside each box?

A little book on the featured emotion, with links to a fun rap and karaoke version. Parent resources to help you spark meaningful conversations about feelings. And toys, crafts, and activities that bring emotional concepts to life in playful and practical ways.

The monthly box

How does the monthly box work?

Each box focuses on a new emotion, like anger, fear, happiness, or gratitude, through engaging tools, activities, and resources that make emotional growth both fun and impactful. See the monthly box.

How much is it?

$39.99 a month, and your first box is $10 off. Each box has products with a retail value of $65.

Can we get a new emotion every month?

Yes. The monthly box brings a new emotion to your door each month.

Can I cancel my subscription?

Yes. You may cancel a monthly subscription anytime after the first month ships. If you cancel after you are billed for the next box, that box will still ship, but you will not be billed again. To avoid being charged for the next month, please cancel before your billing date.

Orders, shipping and returns

How does shipping work?

In the US, monthly boxes, toolkits and mini kits ship for $10, and little books ship for $5. Orders over $50 ship free.

What if my box arrives damaged or defective?

Please contact us within 14 days of receiving your box. We may ask you for a photo of the damaged or defective item. Once it is verified, we will offer you a replacement at no additional cost or a full refund for the damaged item. If we ask you to return it, we will provide a prepaid return label.

What if I received the wrong item?

Please let us know at contact@mymamasays.com within 10 calendar days of receiving your box, and we will send the correct item at no additional cost.

Can I return something I don’t want?

Because our boxes are personalized, we generally do not accept returns or offer refunds for items that are not defective or incorrect. Items that have been used, worn, or are not in their original condition are also non returnable.

How do refunds work?

Once we receive and inspect your returned item, we will let you know the status of your refund. If it is approved, the refund goes back to your original method of payment, and timing depends on your card issuer. Return shipping costs are paid by you and are non refundable. Read our full refund policy.

Schools and Calm Corners

What do you offer schools?

My Mama Says partners with Inspired Educ8ion to offer author readings and workshops, Calm Corner Kits, and the Superhero Inside Kindness Initiative for school communities. See For schools.

How do we bring this to our school?

Tell us about your school on our For schools page. Schools can purchase directly or apply for sponsorship through Inspired Educ8ion. Sponsored opportunities are subject to available funding.

What’s in a Calm Corner Kit?

Our Calm Corner Kits bring together storybooks, sensory tools, and guided activities to support emotional and meaning regulation. Children can practice calming their bodies, naming their feelings, and exploring the stories underneath them, so they can see more possibilities for what to do next.

Where can I find Calm Corner printables?

Our Calm Corners page has classroom ready pages that help kids slow down, name what they feel, and calm their bodies.

How much time does the Superhero Initiative take?

Allow about 15 minutes for the launch (to read the book, define kindness, explain the plan for the next 4 weeks and answer questions), and up to 10 minutes for each Monday/Friday check in.

What counts as a kind action?

We define kindness as noticing another person’s needs and choosing to act with care. Small, everyday moments count! Inviting someone to join in, offering help, listening, sharing, or encouraging a classmate are all great examples.

How do we claim our pizza party?

After four weeks, if your class achieved 100% participation (every student contributes at least 4 nominations), you’ve earned a free pizza party! Please claim within 15 business days of the initiative closing. Simply email nadine@mymamasays.com, and we’ll send you a short completion form to arrange your celebration.
