There are lots of great picture books to help kids practice identifying and regulating their emotions. You might check out The Feelings Book, Today I Feel Silly, or My Many Colored Days for some good emotional vocabulary. You can also start talking about the different ways we can handle big feelings - you want to emphasize that all feelings are okay, what matters is how we act on them. If he's a fan of Daniel Tiger, I'm sure you know there are some great songs on the show that teach how to handle different emotions, and there are some companion books such as How is Daniel Feeling. You might also check out the "When I Feel..." series (When I Feel Sad, When I Feel Worried, etc). For anger, try Anh's Anger and its sequel Steps and Stones, or When Miles Got Mad. Each of these introduces different coping skills he can practice to handle his own feelings. You can try modeling them and verbalizing your own feelings to set an example.

Another good story, aimed at slightly older kids, is Moody Cow Meditates - which features the brilliant "mind jar", also called a calm-down jar or feelings jar. See these instructions (and some cool variations) for making your own (definitely recommend using a plastic bottle rather than glass jar!). The idea is you shake up the jar/bottle to get all those big feelings out, and then sit quietly watching until all the glitter settles. I also recently discovered a cool coloring book that teaches different emotion regulation strategies, loosely based on some guided meditations for kids. There are also some good meditation apps for kids out there, such as Stop, Breathe & Think for Kids and Sesame Street's Breathe, Think, Do.

Hopefully something in there is helpful!
