Elio's Feelings Map

Elio's Feelings Map

A playful, visual way to explore emotions through colour, imagery, and imagination.

Feelings don't always come with words. Sometimes they come as colours, shapes, or a strange fluttery feeling in your tummy that you just can't name.

Elio's Feelings Map is a warm, imaginative worksheet guided by Elio, a curious, kind-hearted little boy who believes that every feeling is worth exploring, even the complicated ones. With Elio as your gentle companion, this resource invites children, teens, and adults on a playful inner journey to understand what they're feeling, where they feel it, and what it might need.

Through five creative activities, users choose a feeling colour, draw their feeling's face, map where the emotion lives in their body, identify what they need in that moment, and write or draw a kind message to their feeling, because every emotion, even the hard ones, deserves a little compassion.

Playful enough for children, meaningful enough for adults. Elio's Feelings Map meets every heart exactly where it is.

Download, print, and follow Elio into your inner world.
