How VentPals Works

A simple, safe way for kids to understand their feelings — with a little help from the birds.

VentPals blends emotional learning with playful storytelling so kids can explore their inner world at their own pace.

1. Start With a Feeling

Kids begin by choosing a feeling that matches what’s happening inside — angry, sad, worried, invisible, excited, and more. No pressure. No judgment. Just honesty.

2. Meet Your VentPal

Each feeling connects to the bird who understands it best. Your VentPal explains the feeling in kid‑friendly language and helps you understand what’s going on inside.

4. Join a Circle

Kids can share their reflections with trusted adults in safe, kid‑controlled circles. Their VentPal — now a confident percher — stays with them as a guide.

3. Grow Together

Kids can draw, write, or reflect with their VentPal. As they grow emotionally, their bird grows too — from baby to nestling to feathered.

Keepsakes That Grow With Your Child

As kids grow with their VentPal, they earn keepsakes — small symbols of courage, honesty, reflection, and emotional growth. Each keepsake represents a real moment in their journey.

Adults can choose to purchase physical versions of these keepsakes in the VentPals Marketplace. These items celebrate your child’s emotional milestones and the bird who’s growing with them.
