IS YOUR CHILD OVERWHELMED BY THEIR EMOTIONS? Anger, sadness, fear, frustration… Emotions can sometimes be difficult to understand and even harder to express. Created by a psychologist, the Emotions Management app helps your child put their feelings into words, understand their needs, and discover practical solutions to feel better. A SIMPLE JOURNEY TO BETTER UNDERSTAND EMOTIONS Your child is guided step by step: • What emotion am I feeling? • How intense is it? • What do I need? • What can I do to feel better? The app includes: • 16 emotions explained in simple terms • A slider to assess emotional intensity • 16 essential needs to better understand what may lie behind an emotion • More than 40 practical actions and solutions • Simple exercises that are easy to use in everyday life AN APP DESIGNED TO SUPPORT YOUR CHILD The goal is not to prevent children from feeling angry, sad, or worried. It is to help them understand what they are experiencing, put their needs into words, and gradually discover what can help them feel better. The app can be used independently by children who are old enough, or together with a parent, caregiver, teacher, or professional. AN APPROACH CREATED BY A PSYCHOLOGIST The content was created by a psychologist specializing in emotional management and emotional support for children and adults. The exercises are inspired by Nonviolent Communication (NVC), mindfulness, positive psychology, and NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming). A SAFE, AD-FREE EXPERIENCE The full version provides access to a safe, child-friendly experience without advertising. Help your child move from “I don’t know what I’m feeling” to “I understand what’s happening to me and I know what I can do.” Because developing emotional intelligence is the first step toward feeling better.

Feely was created by parents, for families. Like many parents, we noticed that it can be difficult to talk with children about their day and their feelings — especially when they are still very young. Traditional emotion diaries often rely on writing, which isn’t always suitable. Feely was developed as a simple, playful way to support emotional conversations within the family. With Feely, parents can help their child reflect on feelings and experiences together. Emotions are visualized using friendly characters, and voice recordings allow experiences to be shared in a natural way. This makes it easier for families to talk about emotions and helps parents gain meaningful insights into their child’s emotional world. Feely is designed for shared use within the family, with parental involvement. WHAT FAMILIES CAN SUPPORT WITH FEELY • Recognizing and naming emotions • Becoming more aware of feelings • Reflecting on emotions together • Processing daily experiences • Encouraging mindfulness and self-reflection • Supporting empathy and emotional understanding • Fostering emotional intelligence FEELY FEATURES • Record feelings and experiences as audio entries • Save meaningful recordings to favorites • Share recordings within the family • Intuitive, family-friendly design • Follow emotional development over time • Clear overview of emotions for discussion and reflection • Create individual profiles for multiple children • Safe and protected environment • No advertisements Feely can be downloaded and tested for free.
