Regulate emotions and return to learning with the Reset Toolkit

 

Every child deserves the tools to regulate their emotions and return to learning. Our team created our new Reset Toolkit filled with calming visuals, sensory supports, and emotional regulation tools — ready to help students pause, process, and reset during coaching sessions. From breathing cards to break choices, these kits are designed to empower students with the tools they need to succeed — one visual at a time. Follow along each week to download a new tool for your kit.

Social Story: Using the Reset Toolkit

Our Reset Toolkit begins with a simple social story that teaches students when and how to use the reset kit. It walks them through emotions, expectations, and choices — in a clear, visual way.
