Why Are Emotion Education Resources so important?

‘Throughout my career as a paediatric occupational therapist, I have witnessed an increase in children who experience emotional regulation difficulties.  Since also becoming a mother to my two beautiful little boys, who also experience emotional regulation challenges I understand firsthand, the extent to which emotional regulation difficulties can interfere with a child’s performance in their everyday life and activities.

As mental health and emotional regulation is a critical component of overall well- being, it is critical, that we equip our children, with the skills and tools that they require so they can learn to manage their emotions and reactions, and can feel calm, regulated and confident to take on their day.”

What readers are saying:

Maggie Dent

Sarah Whelan

“Evocative!”

‘I think the books have delivered the discussion about emotions in a beautiful, evocative way which will encourage more open conversations between parent/adult and child. The books are easily read and well-illustrated (which is a must with children’s books). I love this idea!’

Niamh Hughes

Mental Health Advocate
Director & Founder – Parfulstuff.

“Absolutely adore!”

‘I absolutely adore these books! I know how important it is for kids to understand and manage their emotions – so teaching them how to recognise the feelings coming from within their body is the BEST place to start. These books do that beautifully, through easy to understand messages and brilliant imagery. I’m recommending the whole set to all the parents I work with!’

Stephanie Pinto
Founder of Let’s Raise Emotionally Intelligent Kids.

“Fantastic!”

‘These books are brilliant. I wish there was something like this around when I was a child. The strategies are very practical and something that a child would easily remember. I actually learnt from it myself! The imagery is great, and I believe children would find the books very engaging. All in all, they are a fantastic read.”

How can an Emotion Education Resource help me?

All children can benefit from learning about emotions and using these beautiful emotion education resources.

Studies continue to show that social – emotional skills – such as self regulation, impulse control, empathy and problem solving, have a direct link to academic performance.  Research indicates that children who have the ability to regulate their emotions tend to feel happier, show greater motivation to learn, have a positive attitude towards school and can participate well at home and within the classroom.

It is critical that we support and teach our children how to identify emotions they are feeling and the tools they can use to manage their emotions and reactions.

As ‘co-regulation’ is a prerequisite to ‘self-regulation’ the ‘How Does My Body Feel’ boxset is an excellent tool for carers to use to teach children about emotions and the regulation tools that can be used when children are experiencing uncomfortable feelings.

Afterall, the little children who experience the really BIG emotions and who have difficulty regulating their emotions, are really the little children who need the most education, love and support.

“The idea behind emotional regulation is not to suppress or deny emotions, but to manage them consciously as they shape our words, actions and behaviours.”
