COURSE OVERVIEW

1. Module 1: Getting to Know Emotional Intelligence – Emotions are a universal language that connects us all, making emotional intelligence so important for both children and adults…but what is it really? Caregivers need to understand emotional intelligence first in order to support children in developing these necessary skills for success in learning and in life.
2. Module 2: Using Storybooks to Foster Emotional Intelligence – Caregivers have a big responsibility when it comes to guiding children through challenging experiences and the big feelings that come from them. Storybooks are a powerful visual tool that helps children safely explore these experiences while developing the skills of emotional intelligence. Reading about characters that children relate to and resonate with presents the perfect teaching and learning opportunity. With the guidance of caregivers, storybooks become a way for children to learn how to constructively express and manage their own emotions, solve problems, and feel understood.
3. Module 3: Making Every Storytime ECSELent – Every storytime has ECSELent potential. Caregivers can take advantage of this time to read stories about characters that both mirror children’s lives and teach them new perspectives. By engaging in storytime with children, caregivers can spark important conversations that guide children to identify characters’ emotions, understand what caused them, learn how to constructively express different emotions, and learn strategies for how to regulate that can be applied to their own lives. Additionally, children learn important lessons in problem-solving, compromise, negotiation, and perspective-taking that make them more empathetic individuals, and it all starts with you as the caregiver.
