Being at their eye level, listening and conversing with them, acknowledging their presence, and including them in activities or conversations

some examples might include asking simply about their day and what they had to eat last night for dinner. Showing them new things and again just simple communication back to them, preferably on their level so they feel listened to. Also dont hesitate to follow up with your questions the following day like, you had some trouble with the lesson yesterday, do you still need help understanding or going over anything

I couldn’t agree more with the importance of validating children’s emotions. In my experience, creating a safe space for kids to express themselves and feel heard is paramount to nurturing them. Whenever my kids experience any emotion, whether it’s joy, anger, or sadness, I make sure to acknowledge and validate their feelings. Kids craft kits have been a fantastic tool in this journey. They provide my kids with a fun and creative outlet to express themselves.

You can also engage in responsive interactions by reading children’s cues and responding in ways that ensure that the child feels heard and valued.
