The Feelings Corner
Our littles have lots of feelings. Sometimes BIG feelings. Here’s a space for tips and ideas to help with those feelings.
These tips are helpful for all ages!
The more specific you can be in your question the more information you will get back. You are reminding your child of different moments in the day, helping them focus in and share something. A question like “what did you do today?” is too broad and can be overwhelming for children to answer.
Baby sign language gives your baby the opportunity to communicate before they can form words.
These 6 signs will be incredibly useful in communicating with your sweet babe.
✨Milk – Opening & closing hand like milking a cow
✨Eat/Food – Bring hand to mouth with a closed hand and tap
✨More – Same shape of hand as Eat, but you tap both hands together
✨All Done – Hands up and do a sweeping motion from front to back of hands.
✨Please – Rub your hand in a circular motion on your chest
✨Thank You – Bring hand to your mouth and then pull it down
What signs have been the most useful for you? Or what signs do you want to learn?
