At Minor Nation, we are all about helping children thrive in every aspect of their lives. Recently, we came across an insightful study highlighting the strong connection between emotional awareness and happiness. This inspired us to create a tool to help support your child’s emotional growth: My Emotions Diary – Exploring Feelings Throughout the Week!

What is My Emotions Diary?

The idea behind this diary is simple but impactful. Each day, your child gets a chance to draw and write about how they’re feeling. This not only helps them identify their emotions but also gives them a creative outlet to express those feelings. Emotional awareness is a proven tool for increasing happiness, and this diary can be a fun, hands-on way to nurture that growth.

Why Should You Try It?

Here are just a few reasons to give this activity a go with your kids:

  • Promotes Emotional Awareness: Kids learn to recognise and name their emotions.
  • Encourages Communication: The diary opens up opportunities for meaningful conversations.
  • Builds Emotional Intelligence: Understanding their feelings can help children manage them better.
  • Creative Outlet: Through drawing and writing, kids can explore their emotions in a way that feels natural and fun.

How to Use It

It’s easy! Print off the diary, sit down with your child, and spend a few moments each day reflecting on their feelings. Before landing on how they’re feeling at that moment, you can guide them by asking questions like, “How did you feel today? What was the best part of your day?” or “Was there anything that made you feel upset?” 

Feel free to join in by filling out a page for yourself too! It can be a great bonding activity to share your feelings together.

Share Your Creations!

We’d love to see what your little ones come up with! Once you’ve completed a page (or two), snap a photo and tag us on Instagram @minornationapparel. Seeing your kids’ emotional journeys through their drawings will brighten our day, and hopefully it will inspire others too.

We're Here for You!

As always, we’re here to support you and your family. If you have any questions or want to share feedback about the diary, don’t hesitate to reach out.

Let’s raise happy, healthy kids together! 💖

With love,
The Minor Nation Team xx
