Help your child manage big feelings with simple strategies: Name emotions ("I see you’re frustrated"), model calm breathing, and use routines (like a "cool-down corner").
Praise efforts ("You took deep breaths, great job!") and problem-solve together after meltdowns. Small, consistent moments, like talking about feelings at dinner build lifelong skills.

Absolutely! Helping children manage big emotions begins with small, intentional steps. Naming emotions helps children feel seen and understood it's the first step in emotional awareness. Modeling calm breathing and creating predictable routines like a "cool-down corner" give them tools to self-regulate.
Praising their efforts, no matter how small, reinforces positive coping strategies and builds confidence. And those quiet, everyday moments like talking about feelings at dinner nurture emotional intelligence over time. These consistent practices lay the foundation for resilience, empathy, and healthy communication that will serve them well throughout life.
