💛 Product Description

A peaceful place for horse-loving kids to turn when their emotions feel bigger than their bodies.

Grounded in the Herd: Kids Edition is a 27-page printable journal designed for children ages 8–13 who need help understanding and calming their emotions—especially during moments when they can’t be around horses physically. Inspired by the wisdom and grounding presence of horses, this journal invites kids to pause, reflect, and reconnect with their inner calm.

Created by an equine-assisted wellness coach, this journal isn’t just another workbook—it’s a tool filled with heart, healing, and horse-inspired hope. Whether used at home, in therapy, at school, or simply tucked into a backpack for a quiet moment alone, this journal can become a daily habit that supports emotional resilience, self-awareness, and gentle self-love.

Your child will learn that it’s okay to feel big things—and that, like horses, they can face those feelings with grace, strength, and softness.

🌟 Perfect For:

Parents seeking healthy emotional outlets for their kids
Therapists, counselors, and educators who support children
Horse lovers and equine-assisted learning programs
Homeschoolers looking for SEL (social-emotional learning) activities
Sensitive or neurodivergent children needing calm, structure, and inspiration

Created by Brittany Hitchcock, owner of Strides for Hope, an equine-assisted wellness business rooted in helping kids and families grow through the healing presence of horses.
