Good Mood Monster Cards

One afternoon, my daughter came home from school excited to show me the little monsters she had learned to draw in art class. They were silly, colorful, and full of personality. We sat together and started giving them names and then little messages. Before long, we had an entire line up of little monsters each with an encouraging theme to scare away bad feelings (whether it’s nerves, frustration, or just needing a little confidence boost).

What began at our kitchen table has grown into a movement. For every pack sold, $4 is donated to Dana-Farber Cancer Institute -kids helping kids. And even more meaningful, people have started buying extra packs to gift to others: friends, classmates, or neighbors who might need a lift.
