We love these little cards, they are helping our son with his angry outbursts My autistic 10 year old was struggling with angry outbursts, so we were looking for something practical to help us navigate them. Michelle's cards are amazing - you get a box full of affirmations which can be used at the time or in advance to help your little one understand this complex emotion and strategies for coping with it. The set also comes with a helpful little booklet of advice. Highly recommend!

Love the New Anger Affirmations Card I have long been a fan of Little Wise Toys Tool kits, but when the new set of Affirmation Cards came out, I knew I needed the Anger toolkit, for both myself and my son. Having a 'soon to be Tween', there have been many anger issues and rather than diffuse the situation, my methods were causing things to escalate. The Anger Affirmation cards have been super helpful for both of us, and now we've been using them for sometime we both can regulate our emotions better. Anger is one those emotions that we aren't given the skills to manage in a healthy way, so I am so grateful for these cards. I wish everyone would purchase this toolkit, I am sure the world would be a different place.

Gratitude We just received our Little Wise Set of Anger Affirmations in the mail. I researched several anger affirmation cards and landed on these because of their nurturing message and growth mindset approach. Michelle has been so kind, helpful, and available as I've asked her questions about shipping as we live in the United States. I am SO grateful that I found this resource for our family. Thank you, Michelle!

Reframing your thoughts toolkit I bought these cards well over a year ago for my daughter and we'd had a few conversations using them (with a little reluctance as she was only 5). However recently the cards have come into their own, as she has a new baby brother and lots of changes in our household for her to navigate. One evening when her baby brother was a few weeks old, my daughter took the lead and brought the cards over to me at storytime, selecting the cards that she wanted to talk about. It was so good to see her using the cards as a prompt to talk about how she was feeling and I felt so proud that she'd been able to identify and talk about what she was finding so hard. These cards are such a useful tool and conversation starter for children and their parents/family/teachers. The toolkit is also very high quality and the cards are lovely and thick. You can tell that a lot of love and care goes into the products. I highly recommend the Reframing your thoughts toolkit for all parents of children 6+

Amazing variety of resources I have been using the deck of cards for a few years now and when I saw that Little wise toys were offering an online / downloadable set of different emotions I was thrilled! All of the sets and offerings are so well thought out. They are user friendly and have the heart and interest of the feeling and the person at its very centre. I have been working as an integrative therapist for over 20 years and always looking for resources that are easy to use for everyone. They are handy to print and cut out to pop on the fridge, in a bag or at a desk. Such a great idea! I will always support little wise toys as they are incredibly thoughtful, creative and versatile. Thank you!

Anger Toolkit Our daughter often struggles to manage her anger, and over the years we have often discussed strategies she can use in the moment. The Anger Toolkit gives her a neat little accessible resource. It includes handy in-the-moment reminders of strategies she's been trying to implement for years, helping her to be more successful at applying them, as well as introducing new strategies that she can think about and try out. Its great that she can have the cards to hand in her bedroom where she has created a little space for herself to go when she needs to, and the kit empowers her to work through her anger for herself. (To be honest, I've found the toolkit helpful myself!!)

Beautiful Designs, Incredible customer support The anxiety affirmation cards and the reframing your thoughts toolkit (6-12yo) are beautifully designed and I can't wait to use them with the children and young people I work with. However, the main reason for my 5 star review is the incredible customer support. I was having an issue downloading the affirmation cards and Michelle spent her whole evening emailing, texting and calling me back and forth trying to resolve the problem. I honestly thought, after the third failed link, I'd have to give up any hope of getting the document to download, but Michelle persevered and found a way! Definitely worth it as well :)

Fantastic Resources for Parents and Professionals Over the past few years, I have been using the Reframing Your Thoughts toolkit with my children. This is a wonderful, evidence-based resource that my children and I find helpful and effective in regulating emotions and reframing challenging situations. As a Social Worker, I find this to be a supportive tool for my work with clients. I am excited to start using the new digital toolkit for navigating friendships, particularly as my children approach high school. This toolkit is incredibly comprehensive, covering so many different and important areas of friendships, relationships, and self-awareness. This toolkit is packed with so much content, and as someone living outside of the UK, I am grateful that it comes as a digital resource! I can already see how the use of this toolkit will support my children in building safe boundaries, healthy self-esteem, and strong communication skills. As a parent and professional who is acutely aware of the emerging social landscape and its impact on the mental health and wellbeing of children, young people and adults, I am so pleased to have an accessible, effective and evidence-based toolkit to use in my family and work.

Reframing your thoughts cards WOW, what a find! I came across these cards when a pack were donated to the school I work in. We all liked them but I was quick to "bag" them for myself. Half an hour later they were gone! After a search I found the already being used by our year 4 teacher, he highly recommended them. I work as an ELSA ( emotional literacy support assistant) and knowing they would be a great addition to my resources weordered some more. Within a day of arriving they were being used and the children loved them. We are going to use them throughout our school and I have recommended them to other ELSAs too. If you have a child who struggles with anxiety or negative thoughts these are for you. They come in a box and have a guide for kids and one for adults too. You can probably tell that I love these cards! I had a lovely message from Michelle (handwritten no less) with the cards and she has been very helpful too.

A unique friendship toolkit for parents and educators Little Wise Toys' 'Helping Young People Navigate Friendships' is a unique resource that can help and support parents, carers, teachers and other professionals working with young people. The guide is absolutely packed with ideas: conversation starters, conversation prompts, role play scripts, scenarios, brainstorming tools, affirmation cards and much more! It is very refreshing to also see a section to help neurodivergent children which focuses on acceptance of neurodivergent differences. The beauty of this practical guide is the way it prompts young people to reframe negative thoughts and experiences into something that they can learn from and ultimately grow as a person. The positive overall message is very empowering as the guide provides practical ways of helping children to reflect and helps them to come up with their own solutions, for example, in setting boundaries, speaking up for themselves and standing up for their values. I think these nurturing lessons are ones that adults will benefit from as much as children.

The friendship toolkit is brilliant! Wow! The new friendship resource offers so much useful content - way more than I realised. It's so well thought out and really easy to navigate. I feel like every parent should automatically be provided with one of these when their little one starts school! Well done for creating another very useful resource, Little Wise Toys!

Ideal for helping children into a more positive, growth mindset My son (8) had started to talk very negatively about himself and we were concerned about it so searched for ideas on how to help him. And I'm so glad we stumbled across this reframing resource! These cards are beautifully designed and simple to use, providing negative thought examples and then how to change your perspective on each one to a more positive, growth mindset. We looked at them together first, but very quickly he started accessing the cards himself when he wanted to reframe a thought. They come with some 'Notes for Adults' and 'Notes for Children' cards on how to best use them, and the creator thoughtfully ensured I got an email copy of her 'Best Practice' guide to using the cards as well. Definitely recommend!

Thank you so much for sharing this. I love reading how your son is starting to recognise when he can think about things in a more helpful way, and is even independently taking the step of finding cards that will help him with this. That’s such good progress. Please let him know that the creator of the cards (that’s me 👋🏽) is very impressed and thinks he’s a champ 😊🌈💛

Reframing your thoughts (6-12yo) I bought these for my son and myself to use at home. My son has autism and can struggle with his emotions so I thought the cards would be a good toolkit for us to work with. It has also helped me as a mum to explain the emotions and pop them in to perspective in a much better way. I will definitely be investing in the teenage cards. Thankyou so much for the fast delivery and follow up of how I got on with the cards. Highly recommend theses for others xo

Brilliant Toolkit!! Oh my goodness! This Reframing your thought toolkit is brilliant! As soon as we opened the box we got greeted by two sets of messages both for children and adults, explaining the purpose of these cards and when/how to use them. It made us have meaningful conversations about our (negative) thoughts and ways to reframe them. It will boost my children’s ability to identify and reframe their own thoughts boosting their confidence in the process!! This is so well made and even us, adults, can use some techniques ourselves! Highly recommend this toolkit!

These cards are amazing These cards are amazing for kids and adults. Every time my kids feel down or cry, I pick up the card that best represents their feelings, and we read it together. We are growing closer as a family by talking about our emotions and problems together. I highly recommend them.
