Feel it.
Move it.
Connect.
For the parenting moments when nothing else works. We built something that does.
The Hoopla Method
Everything Hoopla builds is grounded in the same three-step approach. Feel it. Move it. Connect. Simple enough to use in a hard moment. Powerful enough to make a real difference.
Feel It
Emotions live in the body first. Racing heart. Tight chest. Hoopla helps kids notice what’s happening in their body before they have to find the words. That’s the starting point. Not a feelings chart.
Move It
Once you notice it, you move. Not to get rid of it. To do something with it. Wiggle, shake, stretch, save. 60 seconds can shift everything.
Connect
Connection doesn’t need a big moment. Just five minutes and something to do together
Hoopla AI Buddy
Hoopla AI Buddy is a fun and playful companion that helps kids understand and manage their feelings in a way that actually feels exciting. It is built on the Hoopla Method™, where kids learn to notice how they feel, move their bodies to release those emotions, and connect with people around them in real life. Instead of just talking about feelings, it turns emotional growth into something kids do every day in a simple and engaging way.
Less bedtime drama. Fewer meltdowns. More evenings back.

Where can I use Hoopla?
You can use Hoopla at home, on the go, or even in classrooms and therapy sessions. Our app and printable tools are designed to fit seamlessly into your daily routine.
What ages is Hoopla best for?
The app is designed for children ages 3–8. Our Parent Guides cover children up to 12 years old. If you have children of different ages, both tools work alongside each other.
Do I need to be a therapist or teacher to use it?
Not at all! Hoopla is designed for everyday parents and caregivers. You don’t need any special training, just a willingness to connect with your child. We’re here to support you every step of the way.
Is everything digital or are there physical products too?
We offer both digital and physical products.
Our digital products are available for instant download in the shop. Physical products are currently in development and will be launching soon!
How long do the activities take?
Each activity is designed to be completed in under 5 minutes, making them easy to fit into daily routines.
Can I use Hoopla offline?
The app works offline once downloaded. The Parent Guides open in any browser. No installation needed. Printable products can be downloaded and used without any connection. Most of what Hoopla offers works wherever you are.
Do you offer support or guidance for parents?
Yes — we’ve built something specifically for this. Parent Guides is our free guide library: guides covering everything from night waking and public meltdowns to anxious children, distance learning, and parenting through your own history. No app needed, no download, no login. Open it at hooplafun.com/this-might-help.
