Anger Management Toolkit

Meet Mr. Angry. Then learn to take back control. 😤💛🌟

The Open The Joy Anger Management Toolkit gives children aged 4 and up a brilliantly creative, therapeutically backed three-step framework for understanding and managing anger in a way that is completely accessible, genuinely fun, and deeply effective.

The secret is in the clay. Children create their very own Mr. Angry figure from air-dry putty, giving their anger a face, a shape, and a name that exists outside of themselves. This powerful therapeutic technique, known as self-distancing, helps children understand that they are not their anger. It is something they can see, something they can name, and something they can learn to control.

✔ Three therapeutic steps covering recognising, visualising, and controlling anger
✔ 3 tubs of air-dry putty in 3 colours for the Mr. Angry clay creation activity
✔ 3 character cut-outs to colour for creative emotional expression
✔ 5 self-regulation worksheets for guided emotional learning
✔ 2 clay instruction sheets and a Guide for Grownups with tips and strategies
✔ Teaches self-distancing, trigger recognition, and calming skills through play
✔ Scientifically backed techniques chosen specifically by therapists
✔ Builds self-awareness, emotional regulation, empathy, and calming skills
✔ Suitable for 1 to 3 children, ages 4 and up with adult help, 7 and up independently
✔ 100% screen-free and from Open The Joy, experts in emotional intelligence through play

Because anger is not who they are. It is something they can learn to handle. 💛
