Fine
My son started answering 'fine' every time I asked about his day. I felt stuck until I tried the cards. We sat down, and I asked, ‘Okay, which “fine” is yours today? Pick one, and I’ll pick mine too.’ He chose a bright, colorful card, and I picked a muted one. Then we talked about why we each picked our cards, and just like that, the conversation started flowing. These cards have been such an eye-opener for both of us—they make connecting so much easier.

Angry or...?
When my daughter picked a card with sharp teeth, I immediately thought, ‘Oh no, she’s angry.’ But instead of assuming, I asked her, ‘Why did you pick this one?’ Her answer? ‘Because it feels strong—like I can handle anything!’ It completely changed the way I see her choices. These cards remind me not to fall into my own interpretations and to really listen to her. It’s been a game-changer for how we connect

Wordless Feelings
My son always said ‘I don’t know’ when I asked how he felt. Words were too hard. Then we used the cards. He picked one, stared at it for a moment, and finally said, ‘This one feels like me today.’ That was the start. The images gave him a way to show what words couldn’t, and now, emotions aren’t so impossible to talk about.
