A calming coloring book for ages 3-8 that helps children explore big feelings when the world feels confusing or frightening, using gentle prompts and relatable scenes to spark conversation with trusted adults. Feeling Safer in Unsafe Times: A Bilingual Therapeutic Coloring Book is a gentle, supportive tool for children ages 3-8 to talk about and express big feelings after confusing or frightening experiences.
Through ten illustrated, real-life-inspired scenarios, children are invited to color while reflecting on two simple questions: What do you feel? and What can you do? These prompts help children name their feelings and consider small, manageable ways to cope--while giving adults a way to listen and reassure. Presented in both English and Spanish, it's designed to support conversations across languages.
Written by a veteran child psychologist, this book provides a creative space for children to process difficult experiences and begin to feel safer.
