Emotion is a reaction we have to something happening around us or within ourselves, and it is closely related to emotional intelligence, which is the capacity and ability to recognize and manage our own emotions. This is learned gradually throughout development; it is a process that develops little by little in our environment, whether at school or at home.
Emotional intelligence is important because studies show that people with higher emotional intelligence are happier, have better well-being, experience less anxiety, and have more resources to face difficult situations in life.
For all this, the family plays a key role, since it is where children experience their first emotional bonds and feelings. That is why it is so important for parents to be good role models because children will replicate much of what they see in them.
The first step would be for parents to learn to manage their own emotions. It is also important to sometimes pause what we are doing to spend time talking with the children in active listening (with all five senses). This will help them learn to manage and develop their emotional awareness.
Let us not forget that they are children, so education should be done through play and in a fun way. For example, we can dedicate some time to painting with them about how they feel or painting faces expressing different emotions, or reading stories with pictures of various characters that can lead to talking about how they feel and why.
Ultimately, it is about accompanying and helping them in their emotional development step by step.
