Meet the Feel It Friends

Marcus Meerkat, Eddie Elephant, Olivia Owl, Delia Dolphin, Belle Bunny and Feel It Fiona - the Feel It Friends.

 

Meet the Feel It Friends - gentle guides who help children understand their Head, Heart, and Body.

Together they are part of the Feel It Family, where every feeling is welcome and every child belongs.

The Feel It Friends live in the Mini Magical Minds world, a peaceful place where curiosity, kindness, and gentle learning grow - beneath the branches of the Rainbow Tree.

 

Here, children learn that feelings move, bodies send signals, and understanding grows with time.

 

Welcome to the Mini Magical Minds World


This is where the Feel It Friends gather - beneath the Rainbow Tree.


💫 Why These Friends Matter

 

Children experience many feelings each day - some light and easy, some big and confusing.

The Feel It Friends help children notice:


🟢  This is what’s happening in my body.

🟢  This is why I might feel this way.

🟢  There are gentle tools that can help.

🟢  I don’t have to rush.

 

Through stories, calming tools and playful learning, children begin to understand themselves with curiosity instead of pressure.

 

Getting to Know the Feel It Friends
