Enter your name and email and they will arrive in your inbox immediately.
The Compass Code Activity
Casey's compass had no directions. Only questions.
This free printable lets children make their own — a fold-and-keep paper compass they decorate on the outside and carry in a pocket, a backpack, or a bedside drawer. The Compass Code lives inside, ready for any moment a big feeling arrives.
Two pages. One fold. Something children actually keep.
Print it. Make it yours.
Finding Tuey Gratitude Practice
Gratitude is not the instruction to feel better. It is not the demand to look on the bright side while the hard feeling is dismissed. Tuey never asks you to stop feeling the hard thing. She stands beside it.
This free printable guide shows families how to find Tuey — alongside disappointment, frustration, anxiety, and any feeling that arrives uninvited. Nine pages. Thoutful questions. One practice that works at any age.
Print it. Try it tonight.
