Finally circling back for the back half of our previous discussion!
As caregivers and/or educators, we all deal with young children who have big feelings and lots of emotions! It is a topic discussed a lot on social media, we see it everywhere today, and it can be overwhelming navigating the new science and guidance on this topic- especially if you are in the thick of it and experiencing some big emotions of your own! Luckily, the Montessori philosophy supports the education of the WHOLE child, and this includes emotional regulation! We are going to dive into that today, and this episode is the first part of a two part episode that covers all the ways the Montessori philosophy prioritizes and empowers emotional regulation.
