Sadness Toolkit: comfort, creativity & connection
$39.99
Every emotion has something to teach us, and sadness reminds children how deeply they care. The Sadness Toolkit helps kids (ages 4–11) understand, express, and move through sadness with healthy tools for comfort, creativity, and calm.
Each box includes:
-
The little book on sadness: A rhyming story featuring the sad sullen pup that explores what sadness feels like, why it comes, and how we can comfort ourselves and others. Complete with a QR-linked music video, it helps kids process emotions through rhythm and reflection.
-
Soft Sad Pup plush: A cuddly, comforting companion that reminds kids they’re never alone in their feelings. Studies show that tactile comfort, like hugging a plush toy, can reduce stress hormones and increase feelings of safety.
-
Sad Pup hooded towel & fizzy bath potion: Transform bath time into a soothing sensory ritual. Studies show that warm baths lower cortisol levels and support emotional regulation.
-
Watercolor painting set: Encourages creative emotional expression and serves as a visual reminder that feelings can blend and change. Painting helps kids release and transform emotions gently while fostering calm and mindfulness. Art therapy studies highlight that fluid, expressive mediums like watercolor help children externalize and process difficult emotions safely.
-
Reading materials, puzzles & activities: Extend learning through thoughtful play and discussion, deepening understanding of sadness, empathy, and connection.
The Sadness Toolkit helps children see sadness not as something to hide, but something to explore with curiosity and care. Through story, sensory comfort, and creativity, it empowers kids to understand their feelings, and trust that every emotion can be moved through with love and support.
