Got Feelings?

What Are Emotions?
Emotions are powerful signals from within.
They help us understand when we feel safe, hurt, connected, or overwhelmed by the experiences around us.

But too often, children and families are taught to ignore or suppress these signals leaving them unequipped to process, express, or respond in healthy ways.

That’s where emotional literacy comes in.
It’s the ability to recognize, understand, and respond to emotions our own and others’ in ways that support safety, growth, and connection.

At Lion & Lamb Creative, we believe emotional literacy isn’t just helpful it’s essential.
It’s the foundation for healing-centered spaces, trauma-responsive care, and long-term well-being.

We’re here to make it accessible, creative, and community-driven especially for those too often overlooked.

Because when children know how to name their feelings, when parents have tools for regulation, and when communities support emotional safety we prevent harm before it happens.

Emotional literacy isn’t extra.
It’s infrastructure.
