Emotional Development in Children

Emotional development in children refers to their growing ability to understand, express, and manage feelings. As they mature, children learn to identify their emotions, empathize with others, and develop self-control. This process helps them build healthy relationships, handle frustration, and cope with challenges. Emotional development is influenced by their experiences, family, and environment, shaping their sense of security and self-awareness. Supporting children’s emotional growth involves providing a safe space for expression, validating their feelings, and guiding them to develop resilience and social skills.
