Introduction
Emotional intelligence (EQ) is just as important as IQ—if not more. At Kiddy World, we focus on raising emotionally aware and kind children.
🧠 What is Emotional Intelligence?
EQ is the ability to:
- Recognize emotions in oneself and others
- Regulate emotional responses
- Build strong relationships
🧠 How Children Learn Emotional Skills
They learn by:
- Observing adults
- Through play and role modeling
- By facing real emotional situations (like sharing toys)
🧡 Activities We Use at Kiddy World
- Emotion Cards: Kids point to how they feel
- “How Would You Feel If…?” games
- Mindful Breathing Sessions
🏠 Supporting EQ at Home

- Model coping: “I’m upset, so I’m taking a deep breath.”
- Praise kindness: “It was very kind to share your toy.”
Conclusion
Emotional intelligence builds stronger friendships, resilience, and self-confidence. Let’s grow kind hearts as well as curious minds.
