Tip 4: 'I need help calming down, when I feel overwhelmed by strong feelings'

  • Young children’s brains are still developing, so they can’t yet manage big feelings by themselves.
  • When you see your child struggling to manage their feelings, offer support and help them get back to feeling calm again.
  • Seeing your child displaying strong emotions, can trigger strong feelings in yourself.
