FAQs

The Time-In ToolKit® is a complete set of playful, research-based tools that help children name, understand, and regulate their emotions.

Designed for toddlers through tweens, it supports emotional literacy, self-regulation, problem-solving, and connection at home, in classrooms, in daycare centers, and in other child-focused professional settings.

Our Time-In ToolKit and early emotional learning tools are most often used with children ages 2 to 7+, depending on the child’s interests, development, and needs.

Younger children may start with feeling faces, calming rituals, and simple choices. Older children can use the tools to name emotions, solve problems, practice repair, and build self-regulation skills with more independence.

No. Our Time-In ToolKit and early emotional learning tools are designed to fit into the moments you already have — bedtime, transitions, big feelings, sibling conflict, or a few quiet minutes together.

You can start small with one feeling, one calming strategy, or one connection ritual. Over time, these small moments become familiar patterns children can return to when big emotions show up.

Many families tell us they feel a difference starting on day one — not because children suddenly stop having big feelings, but because adults have simple tools to help them pause, connect, and respond instead of react.

As children experience steady, calm support, a positive shift often begins within days. One mom shared that her child went from 33 tantrums a day to just three, after just one week of using the Calming Corner ToolKit Bundle with her 3 year old.

Every child and family is different, but small moments of connection can create meaningful change faster than many parents expect.

Yes. Our Time-In ToolKits and emotional learning tools are used by classrooms, childcare centers, Family Care Programs, and other family support communities including the US Military at Fort Bragg's.

Our ToolKits are use to create calming corners, teach emotional literacy, support emotional regulation, and give children and adults a shared language for the many big feelings young children feel on a daily basis. We also offer group options for programs that want to bring connection-based social-emotional learning into daily routines. Learn more and book a demo today.
