Big Feelings, Little Hearts | Christian Feelings & Kindness Activity Book for Kids Ages 5–8 | Printable PDF
Big feelings can be hard to put into little words. Help your child explore big feelings with gentle Bible stories, practical calming tools and meaningful activities. A 60-page printable book for ages 5–8, with A4 and US Letter PDFs included.
When a tower falls, plans change or a new experience feels worrying, your child may need help understanding what is happening inside. Big Feelings, Little Hearts gives you a gentle way to explore those moments together—with practical activities and the reassurance that God loves them through every feeling.
Created for children ages 5–8 to use with a caring grown-up, this 60-page Christian activity book follows a simple routine:
Notice the feeling → Help my body → Choose with help.
Through relatable stories, Bible connections, drawing, colouring and conversation, children can practise naming feelings, asking for support and choosing safe, caring actions.
WHAT’S INSIDE
• Six feeling sections: anger, worry, sadness, frustration, disappointment and excitement.
• Eight gently retold Bible stories, including Jesus calming the storm, Jesus sharing in others’ sadness and the Good Samaritan.
• Short NIV Scripture excerpts with clearly labelled child-friendly explanations and connected activities.
• Heartfelt prayers and prompts for talking, drawing and reflecting together.
• Practical calming tools, body-clue activities and personal support plans.
• Lessons on empathy, kindness, safe boundaries and making things right after a mistake.
• Cut-out coping cards, a fold-out support plan and a celebration certificate.
• Grown-up guidance, activity answers and Bible reading references.
The message throughout is simple: every feeling is welcome, safe choices take practice, and asking for help is part of growing. Children do not have to hide their tears or feel calm all the time to be loved by God.
