Decode Big Feelings, Together
A free printable card deck that helps dads and kids name emotions, talk it out, and find simple ways to reset
Kids feel big stuff - anger, sadness, nerves, excitement - but often don’t have the words to explain it. The Big Feelings Decoder Deck is designed to help dads and their kids work it out together. Pick a feeling, choose an action, and use a dad tip when things get tough.
We’ll use your email to send you the feelings decoder and occasional Aussie Dadding updates.
