Children’s Mental Health Week: Label the Emotion

Your child’s ability to understand and manage emotions develops over time.

When your child is young, they’ll need help with understanding emotions. This mostly involves recognising and naming emotions.

Children learn how to: 

• behave 
• respond 
• think 
• understand 
• communicate 
• express themselves

from the adults around them.
