After the Busy Day: Understanding Big Feelings at Home – Part 1

$1.50

36 Try • Practise Cards | Ages 3–6 | For Families & Early Childhood Educators

“They were fine all day… then they got home.”

The smallest thing brings tears. Everything becomes “NO.” Your child suddenly wants to be carried, needs more space, finds the house too noisy, or seems to have endless energy.

After the Busy Day is a practical 36-card printable toolkit designed to help adults look beyond the immediate behaviour and consider what the whole day may have asked of a child.

The cards explore transitions, tiredness, hunger, sensory demands, movement, reconnection, boundaries, sibling conflict, parent capacity and the different observations families and educators may have.

Through a simple framework:

NOTICE → CONSIDER → TRY → PRACTISE → REFLECT

You'll find practical ideas to try in the moment, parent practices, child-and-adult activities and educator-family reflection prompts.

This resource isn't about making every homecoming calm or finding a label for every behaviour. It's about observing context, recognising patterns and responding with greater understanding.

Inside:
• 36 practical printable cards
• Try It Now ideas
• Parent Practice prompts
• Activities to try together
• Family & educator reflection cards
• Evidence-informed guidance

Age: 3–6 years
Format: Digital printable resource
Price: $1.5
