Helping Children Express What They Feel β and Parents Understand What They Need
EMOSHKA is an early-stage emotional learning project for children ages 3β7 and their parents, built around original characters Emosh and Emii and animated stories that help children recognize and express emotions.
Our vision is to turn these stories into simple, playful tools that help children express what is happening inside β and help parents better understand and connect with them.

π±Understanding Emotions Starts Early
Young children experience big emotions long before they always have the words to explain them. A child may feel scared, lonely, angry, jealous, or overwhelmed β while a parent sees only crying, silence, refusal, or a tantrum. In our early conversations with parents, we heard the same need in different ways: βI want to understand what my child is really feeling.β That is the gap EMOSHKA is being created to explore. Through original characters, animated stories, and play, our goal is to help children ages 3β7 recognize and express emotions in ways that feel natural to them β while giving parents more opportunities to listen, understand, and connect. Because sometimes the first step toward connection is simply finding the words for what is happening inside.

Children Feel Everything β But Donβt Know How to Say It
Ages 3β7 Big feelings. Not always enough words. Young children can experience fear, anger, sadness, jealousy, loneliness, and frustration before they know how to explain what is happening inside. What looks like crying, silence, refusal, or a tantrum may be a child's way of communicating something they cannot yet put into words.
Big emotions can be hard to express
Children may feel fear, sadness, anger, jealousy, or frustration without knowing how to explain what they need.
Parents want to understand
Parents are doing their best, but it can be difficult to know what a child is feeling when the child cannot explain it.
Parents told us what they need
In our early conversations, parents repeatedly expressed a desire to better understand what their child is feeling and trying to communicate.
Children learn through stories and play
EMOSHKA is being designed around characters, animation, stories, and playful emotional-learning experiences created for young children and their parents.
