A Christian series for growing hearts
Little People,Big Feelings
Teaching emotional intelligence from a Godly perspective—so children can name what they feel, choose what honors God, and remember they are never alone.
“Let the little children come to me.” — Luke 18:16
It’s okay to feel many feelings. God is with us in every single one.
The flagship workbook · four editions
Same lessons. The child on the cover is yours to choose.
Representation matters. The core activity workbook is one book—the same feelings, prayers, and Scripture memory cards—offered in four cover editions so a child can see themselves, a sibling, or a friend looking back at them.
The child you choose appears throughout the whole book — the lessons and Scripture are identical in every edition.
