Mariah And the Colorful Tutus of Feelings: Empowering Kids To Share Emotions Through Color Creativity

When feelings dance inside, and words won't come, tutus help them shine.Some children find it hard to talk about how they feel. For kids who are quiet, sensitive, or cautious in unfamiliar settings, emotions can build up without an easy way out. Mariah and The Colorful Tutus of Feelings offers a different path: expressing feelings through movement and color instead of words.Each tutu in the story represents a specific emotion: shyness, fear, joy, confidence, anger, worry, and tiredness. As Mariah moves through her day, from home to new environments, she uses these tutus to show what's happening inside. The approach is particularly helpful for children who freeze up, cling to parents, or withdraw when overwhelmed.Written by Andre Lewis, DDS, a pediatric dentist, and Constance Lewis, WHNP, a women's health nurse practitioner, the book draws from their experience with their daughter Mariah. It reflects their understanding of how sensitive children process emotions differently and need tools that don't require them to perform or explain themselves before they're ready.The book helps children recognize their emotions as they happen and gives them a physical way to express what they're feeling. It's designed for kids who need time and space to warm up to the world around them.With Mariah and The Colorful Tutus of Feelings, your child will learn that all emotions are welcome and worthy of expression. This playful emotional toolkit helps children build confidence, emotional awareness, and resilience, at their own pace.Join Mariah on her colorful journey and give your child the gift of daily emotional clarity, self-expression, and confidence through creativity.
