Parents this is such a great reminder I saw today !!!!!!!
When a child screams or slams toys, it's often because they don't know how to express their anger, longing, or sadness. 💔

This can lead to tantrums or nervous breakdowns that can be difficult to handle.

The solution is not to tell them to stop crying or use dismissive language like

"𝗝𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗽 𝗰𝗿𝘆𝗶𝗻𝗴!"
Or
"𝗜'𝗺 𝘁𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗼𝗳 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗲!"

Instead, it's important to be present for the child and help them process their overwhelming emotions. Hold them in your arms and validate their feelings, showing them healthy ways to express themselves without hurting others.

Reading at young age 📚

When we start to introduce books at young age we open a world of imagination and creativity.
The source of human intelligence is what we would call story or narrative, our ability to plan or plot, to come up with innovative answers to problems, experts says. “The human brain is able to say, I want to start a company. I want to build something. I want to imagine a new political movement. Computers can’t do that.

“Stories activate anything your brain can do.”

Meaning stories aren’t just entertainment. They’re a form of technology that unlocks parts of our brain to do everything from create to emotionally heal.

GRAPHIC NOVELS

Graphic Novels Build Vocabulary
Did you know that graphic novels often use advanced vocabulary? There is a common misconception that the lack of text makes graphic novels less beneficial for language learners. However, fewer words does not equal simpler words. The language found in graphic novels is often more complex when compared to regular books. Think about it this way, if the book has limited space for text to tell the story, every word must count!

Graphic Novels Develop Visual Literacy
Visual literacy is the ability to understand, create, and talk about images. As we live in an increasingly visual and digital world, it’s important to critically think about the images we are exposed to on a daily basis. Graphic novels help simultaneously develop verbal and visual literacy. If you have ever read a graphic novel, you know that reading the text alone is never enough to get the full story. You have to interpret the images for clues on characters and plot development.

Graphic Novels Aid Comprehension
In graphic novels, images and text work together to create meaning. The images add additional context clues that do not exist in novels without illustrations. This is why graphic novels are becoming increasingly popular in schools, where students read graphic novel adaptations of classic literature like Moby Dick, Pride and Prejudice, or any Shakespearean Play.

Graphic Novels Engage Reluctant Readers
Graphic novels provide a great alternative for children and adults who are reluctant to reading traditional novels. The highly visual content makes graphic novels more engaging and helps readers avoid falling into a reading slump. With so many genres to choose from, there is a graphic novel out there for everyone!

Graphic Novels Are Fast-Paced
Graphic novels offer quick-read alternatives which means that you can read more books. With graphic novels, you do not have to worry about that “to read” pile continuously growing.
