Helping children learn kindness, empathy and inclusion
Welcome to Beyond Words Creative!
Helping young hearts grow kinder, more accepting, and emotionally resilient.
We create inclusive books and lesson plans that help children learn kindness, empathy, and emotional resilience. Our resources are designed to make every child feel seen and valued, while giving teachers everything they need to create a more understanding classroom.
From stories that celebrate differences, to lesson plans that explore non-verbal communication, emotional regulation, and the beauty of diversity, our activities bring learning to life. Each resource is linked to the national curriculum, comes with full guidance, printable materials, adaptations for different abilities, and fun certificates to celebrate achievement.
Our mission is simple: to help teachers nurture classrooms where every child feels included, supported, and able to shine.

👉 What Teachers and Parents Are Saying
Reading Harvey’s story opened up such a natural conversation at home about disability and difference. The extra resources made it easy for us to talk about it in an informed, positive way, and my son really understood why inclusion matters.
The Butterfly Builder activity was a brilliant way for the children to practise communicating without words. It really showed them how challenging it can be, while also encouraging teamwork and empathy. A powerful lesson we’ll definitely repeat.
The AAC pack was such an eye-opener for our class. It helped the children understand that we all communicate in different ways, and gave them simple, practical tools to include everyone. It made a tricky concept feel really accessible and fun.
The children were captivated and it made inclusion feel natural and easy to teach.
