Use self-talk to help the children understand how you cope with strong feelings. They will watch you and learn through your words and actions. Demonstrate how to manage feelings. For example, say, “I spilled the milk all over the floor. Now I have to clean it up,” or say “I am so upset. I am going to close my eyes and count to five.”
