How can I support my child’s emotional development?

  1. Encourage Emotional Naming: Use books, pictures, or situations to help children identify and name their feelings.
  2. Model Coping Techniques: Show calm ways of dealing with frustration, such as taking deep breaths.
  3. Promote Empathy: Engage them in discussions about others’ feelings, using language like, “How would you feel if…?” or, “How do you think they feel?”
