Let’s Get Curious: Anxiety Card Deck

Anxiety shows up in big and small ways – from test jitters to friendship worries – and students often don’t have the words to explain what they’re feeling. The Let’s Get Curious: Anxiety Card Deck helps them build those words, one thoughtful conversation at a time.

Each of the 40 scenario-based cards presents a relatable moment that may spark anxious feelings, followed by discussion prompts to guide students toward understanding and managing those emotions. On the back of each card, deeper questions invite students to reflect, problem-solve, and discover strategies that help them feel centered and in control.

Whether used as a classroom warm-up, a counseling group tool, or a social-skills learning activity, the Let’s Get Curious: Anxiety Card Deck helps create space for real talk and reflection. Students practice identifying signs of anxiety, reframing worries, and connecting with others in a safe, structured way.

Why educators love it:

• Encourages meaningful conversations without pressure or judgment
• Builds emotional vocabulary and coping confidence
• Flexible for individual, small-group, or whole-class use
• Helps transform anxiety from a mystery into something manageable
