Tommy the Turtle

How Tommy Works

Fun activities backed by proven psychology to help your child understand and manage emotions

Science + Play = Real Results

The Science We Build On

Every Tommy activity is based on psychology that's been proven to work with children

Brain Development

Children's brains are wired to learn through play. Our activities use repetition and practice to build emotional skills naturally.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

We use kid-friendly CBT techniques that help children understand their thoughts and feelings, and learn healthy ways to cope.

Emotional Intelligence

Just like reading and math, emotional skills can be learned and practiced. We make it fun so kids actually want to do it.

What Your Child Will Learn

Through games, stories, and interactive activities

Name Their Feelings

Learning to say "I'm frustrated" instead of throwing toys

Understand Why

Connecting feelings to situations and body sensations

Calm Down

Simple techniques like breathing, counting, or taking a break

Build Confidence

Celebrating progress and learning it's okay to have all feelings

Designed for Real Kids

Not just educational—actually fun

Age-Appropriate

What Parents Are Saying

Early feedback from families testing Tommy

"

My daughter loves playing with Tommy! She's already using words like 'frustrated' and 'excited' to tell me how she feels. The stories are her favorite bedtime activity now.

"

I've been testing Tommy with my class and the kids absolutely love it. They ask to play the emotion games during free time. It's a gentle way to introduce SEL concepts.
