$8.00

Meet the Ripple Guide

Hi, I’m Ripple, your friendly blue fish who understands school jitters. The Ripple Guide is my underwater toolkit filled with activities, routines, and brave-building strategies for kids who feel worried about school or new environments. It is designed for little learners ages 4 to 10 and their grownups who want mornings, transitions, and big feelings to feel easier.

What’s Inside

The Ripple Guide is packed with tools that help kids feel understood, supported, and more confident. Inside you will find:

  • Therapist designed activities for school anxiety and everyday jitters

  • Colorful reef themed illustrations to keep kids engaged

  • Kid friendly coping skills inspired by CBT and mindfulness

  • Scripts and routines for smoother mornings and calmer evenings

  • Celebration activities that highlight progress and tiny wins

  • Pages for parents and caregivers that make supporting kids simple

Everything was created by Nicole and Jena from PFECT. Their work focuses on helping families navigate school refusal and school anxiety with compassion, humor, and a lot of heart.

How It Was Made

The Ripple Guide was created with:

  • Years of experience supporting families in therapy

  • Research backed strategies that are easy for kids to understand

  • Feedback from real kids, parents, and educators

  • A focus on accessibility, clarity, and playful learning

  • A splash of creativity straight from Ripple’s Reef

Each page is intentionally crafted to help kids understand their feelings, practice coping skills, and build confidence in a fun and gentle way.

Ways to Use the Guide

Families and professionals can enjoy the Ripple Guide in many helpful ways:

  • Daily routine helper
