This training will help Early Learning Professionals (ELP) understand the importance of encouraging toddlers to master self-care and the effect it has on healthy development of social emotional skills. We will explore the role of the ELP in promoting age appropriate ways for toddlers to express feelings, and empathy towards others.
Participants will understand the importance of helping toddlers master their self care skills in relation to healthy social emotional development. Participants will identify 3-5 activities/ways to promote self-care mastery in their daily schedule.
Participants will discuss building better relationships with families and children in order to promote helathy social emotional development. Participants will identify ways to encourage children to manage feelings(age appropriately), explore and learn, and develop relationships with peers. Participants will identify ways to attend to social emotional needs of the toddler during their daily routines.
Participants will identify ways toddlers benefit from experiencing feelings of aggression, identify why toddler aggression is so powerful for adults, ways to help toddlers contain their aggression and put their feelings into words, or redirect their aggression into productive activities.
