Changes to schedules and new situations can be make it difficult for kids to control their emotions as they are still developing their communication skills. Helping your child through new situations and the challenges they can face can build their emotional intelligence and ability to cope with life’s curveballs.

Regardless of your child’s age, it’s important to talk about emotions and how to successfully work through them. When children label their emotions, they become more capable of managing the way they communicate and react to others, while also learning to normalize their worries and fears.

Recognizing and identifying emotions is a great life skill. Teaching children as early as possible how to identify and express emotions is an essential part of their growth and development.
