Strong Feelings, Safe Choices – Visual Regulation Toolkit for Kids with Autism & ADHD
Help your child make sense of big feelings with this easy-to-use Printable Emotional Regulation Chart for Kids. Whether your child is feeling happy, silly, nervous, or frustrated, this resource helps them express emotions clearly and calmly.
Designed for parents, teachers, and therapists, this visual tool is perfect for building a calm and supportive environment—at home, in the classroom, or during therapy sessions.
Why This Toolkit Works
Children often struggle to name or manage their emotions. This printable chart gives them the visual support they need to feel seen, heard, and understood. It’s especially helpful for children with Autism, ADHD, anxiety, or sensory processing differences. Instead of guessing how your child feels, you can help them use this chart to check in with themselves and choose a helpful response.
