Benefits:

  • Improved mental health: Research shows that gratitude journaling reduces feelings of anxiety, and increases feelings of happiness and satisfaction.

  • Increased empathy and social connection: By asking about helping others and being a good friend, children develop more empathy and a stronger sense of connection to others.

  • Greater resilience: By focusing on the positive children can develop a more resilient mindset and be better able to handle the challenges that may come their way. By acknowledging frustration, we also teach our children that it’s ok to feel many different emotions.

Let The Sunshine In-

A positivity journal for kids

Journalling is a fun and creative way to express feelings and thoughts.

Kids have a lot of big emotions but often don’t have the words to express themselves or know what to write on a blank page in a journal. That’s where prompts come in. Prompts are guided questions that bring out an idea. And instead of writing in each instance, kids are encouraged to draw a picture to express themselves.

This kids guided journal includes sections about:

  • Emotional literacy

  • Goal Setting

  • Gratitude Giving

  • Spreading Kindness

  • Movement, Music and Planning Fun

  • And a “One Good Thing” journalling section for 200+ days

No matter your kids age, journalling will help process the present as well as serves as a fun time capsule for the future.

Best for ages 5+

Teen Guided Journal

Let The Sun Shine In-

A journal for being happy and positive - but not too positive because that’s annoying (and doesn’t make you happier).

Hip Hip Who… can be happy all the time? No one! But we can try to look at the bright side of things, while acknowledging the difficult.

Let The Sun Shine In guides you to a path of positivity in a cute and uplifting format.

It’s not about being positive all the time or solely reminding you to be grateful for what you have (it does remind you though). This journal is a salve. It won't heal you on its own but applied daily, it can provide you with ideas and tools to enhance your mood. Throughout the journal there are many different guided prompts based on positive psychology research and principles.

Let The Sun Shine In shines a light on the approach to increased happiness levels and provides insight into finding joy in the everyday. It also gives you actionable ideas that have been scientifically shown to make people feel happier. From what you may expect like practicing gratitude (that’s just a small piece) to writing thank you notes and savouring the moment. It also helps point out where you are focusing your attention- both the good and the bad - and reminds you that what you pay attention to affects your overall mood. This journal also provides you with a daily prompt to ‘savour' so that when you look back at the year, you have a journal of good memories.

Best for Adults and Teens
