In this episode of the Playful Connection Podcast, Eddie Shin will share four simple and practical tips that can be applied at home to help your child or teen build emotional regulation skills and foster emotional growth and intelligence.

1. Role-Reversal Play
2. Emotion Pictionary
3. Emotion Clay Sculptures
4. Emotion Songs

Fostering emotional regulation in children and teens is like teaching them how to sail. The ocean of life will always bring waves, but through playful practice, they learn how to steer their ship, adjust their sails, and navigate through the storms. By giving them tools to regulate their emotions, parents become their lighthouse, guiding them through rough seas while strengthening the parent-child connection.
