Meet Milmo
Gentle Social Emotional Tools for Big Feelings with Companion Songs & Videos
Milmo was created to help big feelings feel a little less big, and supported by original music and videos!
Milmo is a gentle, creative character designed to support emotional awareness, self-expression, and courage in everyday moments. Through simple visuals, comforting designs, and playful storytelling, Milmo helps children (and the adults who love them) slow down, name their feelings, and feel safe being exactly who they are.
Milmo products are intentionally designed to be:
-
Low-pressure and affirming
-
Inclusive and neurodiversity-respectful
-
Calming, playful, and emotionally supportive
Whether Milmo shows up as a printable tool, a classroom resource, a song, or something cozy to hold, the goal is always the same: to remind kids that their feelings matter, and that asking for help, taking breaks, and being brave in small ways all count.
Milmo isn’t about fixing feelings.
Milmo is about making space for them.
About the Creator
Hi! My name is Kat, and I am the creator of Milmo. I live in the DFW area of Texas, and have 2 amazing kiddos, one in elementary and another about to enter elementary!
Milmo was born from my own experience as a parent, creator, and believer that emotions deserve just as much attention as academics. I created Milmo after watching how hard some kids work just to get through loud, busy, overwhelming days, and how powerful it can be when they’re given tools that actually meet them where they are.
I design everything with real kids in mind: kids who feel deeply, kids who mask, kids who need a moment, and kids who are learning that being brave doesn’t always look loud or confident.
Milmo is deeply personal to me, but it’s also something I hope feels universal, supportive for classrooms, homes, and hearts alike. Every product is created with care, intention, and the hope that it helps someone feel a little more understood.
Thank you for being here and for welcoming Milmo into your world.
