Temp-Check Do a check-in on your own, or take turns with a friend on one device — each says how they feel and guesses how the other feels, then sees how well you read each other. A missed read is just a good reason to talk.
Mood Meter Read the energy (revved-up or slowed-down) and whether it feels pleasant or not, and place it on the four-zone Mood Meter. Every zone is okay — naming where you are is the skill.
Body Signals Feelings show up in the body. Read the sensation and tap where you feel it — a pounding heart, butterflies, a lump in the throat. Every place is okay.
Name It Precisely Once you know the zone, find the most precise word — is it frustrated, or furious, or annoyed? Naming it exactly is a skill that helps you handle it. All activities

Meet the cast — the characters who teach this
-
Pick Noticing self — soft warm-coral rabbit-tween in chunky cream cardigan; tiny held-up affect-card; ears soft + not-tense; one paw tapping card-corner; treats card-picking as thinking-pause -
Both Dyad-sync — two warm-cream hares mirror-paired with cards held up side-by-side; both facing same direction; happy-but-not-overjoyed (overlap is data, not victory) -
Gap Mismatch-as-data — round warm-amber fox-tween in soft slate-blue vest holding chunky measuring-string between two cards; treats SPACE between picks as teaching artifact; never-frustrated, always-curious -
Streak Growth-chart — tall soft-grey heron-elder in chunky charcoal vest reading long chart with hash-marks; wing pointing at time-axis; treats LONG pattern as whole skill, never single check-in as success-or-failure -
Brim Picks the card that is really true today, not the easy "I am fine" card you hold up so nobody worries. -
Buoy Reads the bodys quiet signal first, because a feeling often shows up in your chest or tummy before you have a word for it. -
Skiff Shows that you do not have to wait to be noticed; you can be the one who starts a check-in and asks for it. -
Moor When someone shows you a hard feeling, stays steady and holds it with them instead of rushing to fix it. -
Cove When a check-in gets missed or misread, comes back to it later, because a missed moment is never lost for good. -
Ebb Notices when a feeling turns partway through a moment, and picks a new card, because the first card is a start, not a sentence.
