Teaching Kids About Anger | A Meditation to Help Children Calm Down & Manage Big Feelings

Welcome back to our Feelings and Emotions series ! In this episode, we explore the big and powerful feeling of anger —what it is, how it shows up in our bodies, and healthy ways to handle it. Anger is a normal emotion that everyone feels sometimes. It often shows up when something feels unfair, when we don’t get a turn, or when someone hurts our feelings. In this guided meditation, kids will learn: What anger can feel like in the body (tight fists, a fast heartbeat, a loud voice) How to name anger and say what they’re feeling out loud Simple calming tools like deep breathing, stepping away, and talking it out Why anger isn’t “bad”—it’s a messenger, and we get to choose how to respond This short, calming meditation is perfect for helping kids practice mindfulness, understand their emotions, and learn healthy coping skills for when those big feelings come up. ✨ Parents, this is a great tool for: After-school wind downs when kids come home upset Teaching emotional regulation at home or in the classroom Helping children feel seen and validated in their feelings Building resilience and emotional intelligence By noticing, naming, and calming anger, kids gain confidence in handling their emotions—and learn that all feelings are welcome here, even the big ones. 💫 Help us create more mindful moments for kids!
