Tiny humans, big emotions : how to navigate tantrums, meltdowns, and defiance to raise emotionally intelligent children / Alyssa Blask Campbell, M.Ed., and Lauren Stauble, M.S.

Summary:

"The Future is Emotionally Intelligent Childhood is filled with wonder-and also lots of tears. Scraped knees. Bruised egos. Tantrums. As children, we may have been taught to minimize or bury our emotions: Don't cry. It's not a big deal. Calm down. Though well intentioned, this parenting approach didn't give us any actual understanding of why we feel what we feel and how to handle big emotions. As parents ourselves, we can forget that three-year-olds can zip their own jackets so we do it for them, and yet we still expect them to manage strong emotions by themselves. As science expands our understanding of the developing brain, we know-now more than ever before-how important it is to raise emotionally intelligent children who are able to navigate all of the challenging feelings that come with childhood, and life. Early childhood experts Alyssa Campbell and Lauren Stauble are at the forefront of a parenting and education revolution to help foster this essential skillset with their proven Collaborative Emotional Processing (CEP) method. Designed for the tricky infant and toddler years when the tiniest humans have some of the biggest emotions, this innovative book shows parents how to handle their children's outbursts while empowering their children to recognize and manage difficult feelings like anger, sadness, and shame, as well as anxiety. It provides the tools to tackle every sort of stressful parenting moment, including: What to do when your child throws a tantrum (it's not what you think!), How to react when your child hits, punches, or bites, How to regulate your child's nervous system in the moment, How to anticipate and end meltdowns before they even begin. Tiny Humans, Big Emotions is an empathetic, parent-friendly guide to cultivating self-regulation and empathy with your little one, setting the groundwork for a lifetime of emotional resilience and wellbeing"-- Provided by publisher.
