For teachers and therapists supporting children aged 6 to 12 in developing emotional resilience, emotional literacy, and navigating the challenges of striving for their best, particularly in sports or school.

Jack dreamed of making the rep hockey team. He practiced hard, believed in himself, and filled his vision board with positive affirmations. But when the final list was posted, Jack's name wasn't on it. His two best friends made the team, but he didn't. Suddenly, he felt like all his effort didn't matter.

Gramma Kate meets Jack after tryouts and helps him talk through his feelings. Together, they explore what it means to be disappointed and how to keep going when things don't work out. Jack begins to understand that emotions are part of every journey and that learning to name and express them is just as crucial as any win on the ice.

Themes and Emotions Explored in This Story:

Teaching feelings in real-life situations that children face
Building emotional literacy through open and supportive conversations
Growing emotional resilience after a setback or rejection
Handling peer comparison and feelings of failure
Encouraging self-reflection and positive self-talk
Supporting boys in expressing emotions in healthy ways

Making the Team is a supportive resource for teachers, therapists, and counsellors to help children understand their emotions, bounce back from disappointment, and feel proud of who they are, no matter the outcome.

About the Author

Cathy created the series to help children build their self-esteem, understand their emotions, and know they are accepted for who they are-things she struggled to find as a child due to her upbringing.

Designed for children ages 6-12, her stories are also used by teachers and child therapists as a way to start meaningful conversations.

Cathy is also a podcast host and a reading and math tutor for children in kindergarten to grade 3, working under the same brand, Lessons for Life With Gramma Kate.
