🌿 Making Space: The Acceptance Expanded Pack
 
Expanded Pack & Toolkit
 
✨ A creative, heart-centered resource for helping children and families make space for every feeling — big or small.
 
This gentle 21-page printable pack helps children and families learn to make space for feelings — the comfortable and the tricky — through creative acceptance activities for kids. Through calming stories, creative crafts, and reflective tools, kids discover how to hold emotions with kindness and curiosity.
 
Blending mindful play with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) principles, Making Space teaches that it’s okay to feel what we feel — and that every emotion deserves understanding, not judgment.
 
Inside this resource:

📖 Part 1 – Understanding Acceptance
Child-friendly explanations, guided reflection, and a mindful drawing activity.
 
💬 Part 2 – 6 Acceptance Cards
Calm, Love, Frustration, Missing Someone, Nervous, and Confused — each with awareness, action, and affirmation prompts.
 
🦊 Part 3 – Mini Stories
Three short tales featuring Finn, Delaney, and Avery modeling acceptance in everyday moments.
 
🎨 Part 4 – Creative Practices
Hands-on mindful crafts like the Feeling Jar, Mandala, and Cloud Notes.
 
🌿 Part 5 – Reflection & Connection
Shared family prompts and mantras to encourage open emotional dialogue.
 
📅 Part 6 – Printable Tools
Weekly tracker, parent affirmations, and a bonus coloring page.
 
✨ Why it matters:
You can’t always choose what feelings arrive — but you can choose how you meet them. Making Space helps children (and parents) learn that every emotion has a place, and that calm begins with acceptance.
