Ages 3 to 5

Public Speaking & Social Survival

By OSH Founding Team✓ Verified by OSH Review Panel

Naming feelings, calming the body, and practising kind responses, so big emotions become something a child can handle rather than fear.

What this subject teaches

Child names four basic feelings in themselves and others, uses one calming strategy with a reminder, and recovers from upsets faster over time.

Friendships, classroom readiness, conflict at play, and lifelong mental health; adults who regulate well learned it young.

Each day the child reports their inner weather: sunny, cloudy, stormy, or rainbow, building the habit of noticing feelings.
