Here you find what people have been saying about the kidsemotions questionnaire and website.
“We asked for assistance with our son who was exhibiting uncontrollable anger outbursts. This questionnaire exercise was considered 'a fun challenge' by Thomas and the resulting report, identifying his emotional strength and weaknesses was insightful and useful. As well as providing us with a much better understanding about how Thomas was feeling, the report provided a valuable starting point for us to talk about these feelings with him.”
The parents of Thomas, age 9

“A fantastic tool! Following the assessment we have worked on the confidence of our daughter and she has gone from not wanting to participate in any events to winning the backstroke at her school swimming sports. In our view this is a significant tool for parents, providing valuable insight into your child’s development. A must for all parents!”
The parents of Penelope, age 8

"I have read with interest Dr Katrin Hille's questionnaire on children's emotion. It seems to me to be an excellent start as a 'self-help' questionnaire for parents to use in gaining some knowledge of their children's emotional intelligence. I am sure that it will prove to be useful."

“It’s a good tool for an initial establishment of how the child handles their emotions and understands their impact on others. The tool is neither confrontational nor invasive, as it reads in such a way that makes all emotions and responses sound natural – feelings everyone encounters. It would have been good to have this tool when I was working with kids in the residential treatment programme in Oregon.”

"Professionals in the educational setting have stressed for some time now that knowledge of children's emotional competence could help in addressing the variety of behavioural challenges they are faced with when working with students. This questionnaire fills a gap in the comprehensive assessment of students in the educational setting. I believe that we will see the benefits of increased understanding of children's emotional competence in better-adapted children."
