Big Feelings Are Gifts.
We Help Kids Understand Them.

Mood Monsters began with a simple idea:

What if kids could see their feelings not as problems, but as messengers?

​

As parents, educators, and therapists, we’ve seen how often children are told to "calm down" or "stop crying; without ever being taught what their feelings actually mean.

​

We created Mood Monsters to change that.

​

Through playful characters and meaningful stories, each book helps children understand that every emotion, even the uncomfortable ones, has a purpose. Anger can protect us. Guilt can help us make things right. Fear can help us stay safe.

​

Because when kids learn that their feelings aren’t something to hide or fight, they gain something powerful:
the ability to understand themselves.
