Welcome to the Regulation Reef:

A Gentle Starter Guide for Naming Feelings with Your Child

Most feelings systems ask kids to pick one emotion and stay in the box. But real feelings don't work that way — and neither does the Regulation Reef.

This guide introduces five reef zones, each with its own color, creature, and feeling — from the quiet Blue Reef Turtle to the stormy Red Reef Shark. And because real emotional experiences rarely stay in one box, the Regulation Reef is different: colors mix, purple is its own zone, and the characters are designed so kids actually see themselves in them.

Some of what you'll get

  • Meet all five reef zones and the creatures that live there

  • Understand why colors mix — and why that matters for your child

  • Learn why Purple is its own zone (and one of the most important ones to catch early)

  • Get starter phrases you can use today to name feelings together

About Kristene Geering

I help smart, loving parents of young children find tools that actually work in real life — not just in theory. You know, when your kid is melting down in the grocery store and you can't remember a single thing from this morning, let alone last week. As a Certified ADHD Educator, parent coach, early intervention specialist with over 30 years of experience (not to mention mom of twins), I created Regulation Reef because I needed something kids could actually relate to when it comes to those complex emotions.

I'm so glad you're here!

(Oh, yeah, I've been there!) As a mom of twins, author, educator, and coach with over 30 years of experience helping families, I'm here for you. I can help you go from being a good parent to being a great one, parenting with more confidence, compassion, and connection--even in those tough, real-world moments.

See What Others Say....

"Kris was a wonderful, kind, and gentle teacher."

Kris was a wonderful, kind, and gentle teacher. We came home with tools that we now use every day. At a playdate, my five-year-old became a little overwhelmed with excitement, so he stopped and used one of the meditation techniques from class to calm himself down. Then he even tried to teach the technique to his friend!

- Brenda, Mother of Two

"Kristene helped us gain insight into ourselves as a parent and stepparent... I believe her work helped us build a foundational relationship."

To say Kristene’s contribution to our family was invaluable is an understatement. I’m not exaggerating. She helped us connect with my husband’s toddler, understand his challenges, and gain insight into ourselves as parent and stepparent.

This was essential as we navigated high-conflict split custody, with no information about our kiddo’s experience in his other home. Kristene provided us with a breadth of knowledge, compassion, and guidance that instilled confidence in our ability to meet our child’s needs, support his emotional growth, and help him regulate his big toddler emotions with competence and care. I believe her work helped us build a foundational relationship that will support our kiddo’s connections and development for a lifetime.
