Publisher's Synopsis
Understanding emotions is an essential skill for every child. Effectively help your little ones learn on how to understand their emotions with this book! Included is an illustrated example story, and personal reflection activities to practice the skill of emotion labelling.
Why bother labelling emotions?
On average, children start learning to regulate their emotions between ages 5-8. This is around the same time children usually begin to read. It's a perfect time to introduce them to emotion labeling as they expand their vocabulary.
Research shows that children who identify and understand strong emotions, especially negative feelings, tend to adapt better academically in preparation for exams.
Also, research shows that children coached in emotion labelling tend to have better long-term mental & physical health outcomes, and experience fewer emotional problems such as acting out in anger or anxiety.
Support your little one by reading this book that shows examples of understanding emotions, and reflecting on their own emotions!
