This ground-breaking book is a first of it's kind kid's workbook. The workbook fills a critical gap for families in the LGBTQ+ community. Inspired by the author's real-life parenting experience, it helps children in LGBTQ+ families prepare for the difficult or confusing conversations they may encounter with peers, teachers, strangers, and even extended family members. Through guided activities, it empowers young readers to embrace their family's identity, deepen their sense of pride, and build confidence in who they are and where they come from.

Most importantly, this workbook is designed for children and parents to complete together, creating intentional space for meaningful conversations at home - long before kids are put on the spot in the outside world.

Created for youth ages 6-12 (with flexibility for younger and older children), this workbook supports kids in developing resilience as they navigate the complexities of identity and belonging in families with LGBTQ+ parents or caregivers. Readers are guided by Lex, an adorable, gender‑neutral penguin who leads them through a journey of family pride, coping strategies, emotional awareness, and self‑expression. Activities are designed for both independent engagement and collaborative family discussion. A dedicated Parent Section provides guidance, prompts, and language to help adults support their children with confidence.

The author collaborated with a diverse group of LGBTQ+ parents throughout the development process. These families piloted early drafts with their own children, offering feedback that shaped the final version. The result is a workbook truly created by our community and for our community.

There are two editions available to help ensure broad representation - a two mom edition and a two dad edition.  Trans-related content is embedded within both editions as well.

Managing Emotions Workbook

$14.95 $10.50
Add to Cart
​Identifying and managing emotions can be hard, really hard. This is especially true for children, as they often don't have the vocabulary to describe what they are feeling. This workbook makes feelings exploration and coping skill development fun, making it a valuable addition to your feelings toolkit.

​​Based on concepts rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), this +70 page workbook is designed to:
  • help kids identify different feelings,
  • develop greater feelings vocabulary,
  • make the connection between emotions, thinking and behaviors,
  • explore positive coping strategies,
  • making feelings discovery fun and engaging for kids from 5-12+ years old.

​Here's a sampling of what you'll find inside: feelings charts, blank feelings faces, "emoji fun", mazes, word searches and word scrambles, matching activities, physical and emotional exploration, suggested activities for adults and children, and hours of interactive engagement!
