About Little Peanut

What is Little Peanut?

Little Peanut is a fun, hands-on tool to help kids learn about feelings.
It helps adults talk to kids about big feelings early — before a diagnosis or big problems happen.
It makes feelings easier to see, name, and talk about.

Little Peanut uses touch, stories, and pictures to help kids feel safe and calm.

Why it’s different?

Unlike traditional resources, Little Peanut:

  • Is tactile-first – made for little hands and sensory needs

  • Feels emotionally safe — soft pictures, kind words, friendly for all brains

  • Helps adults and kids calm down together, not just on their own

  • Connects home, therapy, and school — so everyone gives the same support

Where’s it used?

Little Peanut is being used and trialed in:

  • Therapy and OT rooms

  • Classrooms

  • Doctors’ or psychologists’ offices

  • Play rooms

  • Homes — for everyday feelings and calm time
