IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT YOUR TODDLER UNDERSTANDS ABOUT THEIR FEELINGS AND HOW TO MANAGE THEM. SEE THE GUIDE BELOW FOR ADVICE

EXPRESSING FEELINGS

FRUSTRATION: Encourage your child to bounce out frustration by jumping.

EXCITEMENT: Allow your child to run around when they are excited.

SADNESS: Encourage your child to run around when they are excited.

ANGER: Give your child some paper and pencils to encourage calming down.

UNDERSTANDING FEELINGS

When your child has calmed down or relaxed, speak to them about how they felt and why. See the useful tips below.

1. UNDERSTAND THE FEELING

Ask your child what they were feeling and why they were feeling that way. Ask them how you can help when they have that feeling.

2. EXPLAIN THE REASON

If your child is upset because of being told no or something similar, explain the reasons why they were told no.

3. RESOLVE THE ISSUE

Discuss with your child a way they can deal with each feeling, such as taking deep breaths, counting or having some personal time.

It is very important your child is aware and in control of their feelings and actions, especially bad feelings. Work with your child to ensure they express bad feeling in positive ways.
