One Tiny Step: The Committed Action Expanded Pack for Kids supports children in learning how to keep going, speak up, try again, or make a different choice — even when emotions like fear, doubt, or disappointment show up.
 
Using child-friendly language, engaging characters, and hands-on activities, this resource helps kids connect what matters to them with the following doable action — without pressure, forcing, or “positive thinking.”
 
This pack is ideal for families, therapists, educators, and caregivers who want to support emotional courage, follow-through, and self-trust in a gentle, developmentally appropriate way.

✨ Why This Resource Matters
Children don’t need to wait until fear disappears to move forward.
Committed action teaches kids that bravery isn’t loud or perfect — it’s quiet, steady, and built through small choices. This pack helps children trust themselves, build resilience, and learn that they can keep going even when emotions feel tricky.
