Koomi & Friends Journal plus Bloom Cards, the complete emotional intelligence card set.
Koomi & Friends Journal is designed to create daily moments of reflection and emotional growth for children ages 6 to 12.
Through daily check-ins, reflective prompts, and practical activities, children explore their feelings, build a stronger sense of who they are, see mistakes as part of learning, and look after their wellbeing.
Each day is a two-page spread:
- The left page is for feelings: naming, understanding, and reflect on how to respond while learning new feelings words
- The right page brings something fresh every day: stories, questions, activities, and prompts about confidence, growth, and self-care
Three things make this journal special:
Something different every day
No two days are the same, with six friendly characters and new content daily, designed to be something children want to come back to.
Space for every shade of feelings
Dedicated prompts, the Rainbow Feelings Bookmark, and the Feelings Glossary help children find the right word for what they feel.
Support beyond feelings
Daily prompts create space to make sense of friendships, mistakes, and worries, while practicing gratitude and kindness.
The journal is undated, so children can move through the 12 weeks at their own pace.

The difference
Where most children's journals stop, this one keeps going.
Designed to be returned to
No two days are the same
Each day starts with something familiar enough to feel easy, then continues with something different enough to stay interesting.
Exploring feelings
Happy, sad, and mad are a start
"Mad" might mean frustrated, jealous, or just annoyed. The journal helps children name it, then respond to it.
Growing bigger
More than feelings
Friendships, mistakes, worries, proud moments: the journal is the space to make sense of it all.
"I just love that every page is different. Every day I want to go to the next page already!"
Keira - Age 10
Designed to be returned to
The same easy starting point. Then, something new every day.
Each day is one two-page spread. Plenty of space to discover, learn and grow.
Exploring feelings
Feelings go deeper than "fine," and so does the journal.
Feelings can be difficult to notice, put into words, and respond to. The journal offers three ways to explore them, so children find words that fit what they really feel, and simple things to try when a feeling gets big.
1
Daily feelings page
A daily space to explore different shades of feelings and ways to respond, helping children grow emotional confidence.
2
Rainbow Feelings Bookmark
This handy bookmark groups 42 feeling words under six familiar starting points, so the right word is always within reach.
3
Feelings glossary
Child-friendly definitions help unfamiliar words make sense, with room to add their own.
Growing bigger
A complete daily practice for emotional growth
Together with feelings, the journal makes room for confidence, gratitude, kindness, resilience, and wellbeing across the 12 weeks.
Growth Mindset
A kinder way to meet ‘I can’t’
Stories and questions help your child see mistakes as part of learning, so a hard moment can become a reason to keep going.

The Journal
Yes. It's written for children ages 6 to 12 to use on their own. Younger children may like some company at first, while older ones can use it independently. What they share is up to them, and that's often where the good conversations start!
In one word: no! We designed it so no two days feel the same. We wanted it to feel engaging, fun and versatile, while having a familiar structure children felt comfortable with. That’s why the left page keeps a familiar three-prompts structure all about feelings, so starting each day is easy. The right page changes every day: questions, stories, activities, and memory prompts, all about growth mindset, confidence, gratitude, kindness and wellbeing. Plus, the six characters are just too adorable, and make the perfect companions for the journal!
Nothing! Life happens, we all get busy or tired (kids included) sometimes, and skipping a day of journaling is completely normal. The journal is undated, so kids can simply pick it up again. It's about building a practice, not keeping a perfect streak.
Yes. Every journal comes with one Rainbow Feelings Bookmark: 42 feeling words to help kids find the right one for the day. And if a feeling is hard to understand, the Feelings Glossary at the end of the journal is there to help.
The Journal and Bloom Cards have been designed to work as one connected daily practice of emotional intelligence, where the same emotional skill is practiced in multiple ways.
The journal introduces new ideas through a short daily practice. Bloom Cards let children go deeper with the matching deck: Growth Mindset, Big Feelings, Self Identity, Self Care. Both products use the same emotional language and the same six characters, creating one consistent experience.
