ParentsLoveLearn with Sesame Street
Parent of a 3-year-old
He really loved the Elmo. That’s what we used. We’d leave it on the table, he knows where to find it, so when he is frustrated he says ‘I’m mad’ and then he squeezes it and takes three deep breaths.
Parent of a 4-year-old
She expresses herself a bit more... she’s saying how she’s feeling more. ‘I’m frustrated. I’m sad. Mommy, I’m so excited.’
Parent of a 2-year-old
I think she understands nervous and frustrated. She says that now to me. Like, ‘Mom I feel nervous.’ Like today we saw the train go by and she said, ‘I’m nervous. Can you pick me up?’...so like naming it a little bit more…
