Ever wonder what's swirling inside your little one's head? The Feelings Wheel can be your colorful key to unlocking a world of emotions! ✨

This handy tool visually represents a spectrum of feelings, helping children identify and name their emotions in a fun and engaging way.

Why is the Feelings Wheel so awesome?

🌵Empowers expression: Words can be tricky, but the Feelings Wheel provides a visual language for kids to communicate their emotions clearly.
🌵Builds emotional vocabulary: As children explore the wheel, they learn new words to describe their feelings, expanding their emotional intelligence.
🌵Promotes emotional regulation: By identifying and naming their emotions, children gain a sense of control, fostering self-regulation skills.

And here's the cool part: Understanding emotions is a key topic in Circle of Security® groups! By joining a group, you'll learn strategies to:

🌵Connect with your child's emotions on a deeper level.
🌵Promote healthy emotional expression.
🌵Support their emotional regulation journey.

Ever wonder how to help your child navigate those big emotions? In Circle of Security groups, we often discuss the Zone of Regulation, a helpful framework for understanding emotional states.

While this is not officially a part of the Circle of Security curriculum, it is a framework I have used both in my own home and classroom to talk with children about their emotions as part of 'being with'.

This framework isn't about avoiding each state but giving language and skills to support you and your child at each stage. And teaches us and our children to observe their bodies, behaviours, and emotions.

interested in learning more about Circle of Security and exploring these concepts? Join us for our in-person group on February 17th and 24th with !

In a supportive environment, you'll gain valuable insights into child development, build connections with other parents, and discover tools to navigate your parenting journey with confidence.

Next week we are kicking off our next round of Circle of Security (abbreviated) if you haven't booked in yet now is the time.

28/01/2024

Part of the discussions in Circle of Security Parenting Brisbane we go into how to build emotional literacy through being with our children in their struggles.

But we can also build this through play when things are calmer. Through play our children can experiment with emotions, learn how they look and feel.

If you are after some play ideas, check out the 6 below and let me know which one you will try.

PS. Tickets are now on sale for our next 4 week COSP course and our in-person weekend course.

Each time I run COSP I end jump discussing the feelings wheel as a way to build emotional literacy and help children learn more words to describe how they are feeling. So I have put my own version together and it is available now for download on the website.
