| Abstract: | Children enter the world with simple emotions and gradually add complex feelings to their repertoire of skills. As children
grow and develop, they learn to label their emotions and regulate them in socially appropriate ways. Literature is one way
early childhood educators can foster healthy emotional development. This article explains how emotions develop during the
preschool years (3–5), shares why it is important for early childhood educators to understand the connection between emotional
and literacy development, and suggests books and strategies that can be used to enhance young children’s emotional and literate
lives. |
