The 3 Stages of Emotional Child Development

Emotional development refers to the ability to recognize, express, and manage feelings at different stages of life and to have empathy for the feelings of others. Sometimes, this can be referred to as emotional intelligence. Healthy emotional development can set you up for a life of success when it comes to managing yourself and those around you.

I love the little leaf on the babies head it's so freaking cute

[PracticalInspiration]

Great video, as a father I can remember precise moments where I remember seeing my son's development through the stages as he was growing. Very useful, as being a parent is stressful and people can at least understand a little better why children behave the way they do at different ages

[alainadacosta]

I really like this guy’s voice, I feel like he would narrate bedtime stories really well

[crybabyxo]

Awe the baby version of the drawings are so cute😘😘

What about the stage at 18 years of age where you realize your mother is narcissistic and is the cause of your depression, which is when you begin to learn to trust people and process your emotions properly?

"Another cute the plant on the babies head 😍😍

A more accurate title might be “3 Stages of Child Development” as we develop more emotionally as we age past 2 yrs.

this was cool! can you do a video on signs of anxiety in early childhood (0-10 yrs)? it's something i'm interested in and haven't been able to find much research over.

[MalakaEnergetic]

My parents werent perfect. They did their best and they gave me a lot. I am going to make sure my kids have the best childhood possible.

Swear to God, the animation you guys create is the most adorable thing I've seen in a long time.

[heyitsnataliec]

Thanks for showing me that I haven’t emotionally matured beyond 10 months old

[musingsofmessa]

This video goes to show how much I miss my babies. 😦

My oldest is over a year old, and my youngest is almost 3 months. Due to personal reasons resulting in my ex being arrested, I can't see my children. I started missing my oldest son's life after 8 months, and my youngest since he was born. 🙁

But the video was nice to watch otherwise. The little baby sprout is too cute. It's something to keep me happy. 🙂

[greasybawls]

I REALLY like this artists drawings and whenever I think of psych to go I think of this style.

[Storm_cryo]

I wish my mom saw this before she metaly distroyed me into a million little sad emotions

[joannaswag]

I learn more from these videos than at school

[DoctorElliottCarthy]

This period and adolescence are crucial times where we learn about managing emotions from out environment and experience. Difficulties in regulating emotions such as in borderline PD or ADHD can be really prominent during adolescence.

Very informative! And I LOVE this animation, and the leaf on the child's head is so cute

[megankay]

wow. I was still in a Russian orphanage for most of this...Came to the US not moving at all. didn't realize how much development actually happens in the early stages of life. Thank you for this video.

[honeycomb]

This will help with my child development GCSEs, thanks!

[Absolhunter]

This is very interesting! I know I’m not gonna be a mother. But I find this very informative!
