Babies and young children experience a wide range of emotions that reflect the richness and magic of the early years. Emotions give us a glimpse into how our tiny humans experience the world around them—their comfort or distress, hunger or satisfaction, happiness or fear.

This helps young children to experience, understand, and accept all their feelings. We can help them manage their strong feelings too – by providing comfort when they are scared, joining them happily when they are excited and joyful, taking a deep breath when they are angry or frustrated.
The way we interact with babies and young children plays an important role in how their brains develop, which impacts their emotional and social worlds. Children learn about themselves and others, about all experiences and activities through their interactions with important adults in their lives.
