How do we teach our children social and emotional awareness in a fun and play filled way? Eventually our children will become adults so when they walk out into the world, we want them to step into their lives as aware and in control of their emotions as possible.
In this episode we discuss:
The resources Yara has put together to support social and emotional learning
The importance of playing and therefore learning how to self regulate
Crafts which help engage children in social awareness
How kids cope with anger and the tools to help them while learning this emotion
Different discipline options during transitional points
How to manage your own emotions as a parent
Communication points in your child's day so you can check in
How Yara relaxes
