A 5-page printable scale to help kids talk about how sadness or depression feels, illustrated with a friendly dragon.

Talking to kids about depression is hard. They don't always have the words for what they're feeling, and "are you sad?" doesn't quite cover it.

This is a version of my depression scale designed specifically for kids. It uses language that's easier for them to understand and references how depression (or sadness) can show up in school life and home life.

The scale itself is illustrated by a dragon that progressively looks sadder and this can help start conversations with kids about how sadness (or depression) looks on the outside and the inside!

This is a communication tool, NOT a diagnostic or treatment tool, and shouldn’t be used as one. Any level of depression requires professional intervention especially when it comes to kids.

This scale is geared towards helping kids talk about extreme sadness and/or depression. If you’re a parent, please go through it with your kid’s mental health professional first, just to double-check that it will be a good fit as a communication tool!

Here's What's Inside:

5-page PDF (with a black and white version for easy printing)
The default Depression Scale (illustrated with a friendly dragon)
A blank scale to customize together
The "Feeling Better" worksheet for listing self-care that helps at each level
A list of discussion questions to open up conversation
Digital fill-in enabled (use it on a tablet, computer, or print at home)

This scale is designed to be used together with a parent, caregiver, or mental health professional. It's not meant for kids to fill out alone.
