Whether they are angry, anxious, or frustrated, children will be able to calm themselves with the dozens of activities included in this card deck.

Includes:

• 24 illustrated cards presenting a calming method—physical, auditory and verbal, visual, creative, self-nurturing, or humor—with instructional text on using the action to calm big emotions
• 10 game cards that provide step-by-step instructions, in English and Spanish, for activities parents and teachers can use with the calming cards to introduce the concept of self-calming
