Child Development and Wellbeing

Understanding and expressing emotions is an important part of a toddler’s development. Helping young children identify, name, and manage their emotions sets the foundation for emotional intelligence and empathy. ABC School Supplies offers a range of engaging resources, including Jumbo Emotion Stones, to support this learning journey.

These tactile emotion stones feature faces expressing four key emotions that children frequently experience: happy, sad, surprised, and angry. Using these stones in classroom activities or at home encourages emotional awareness, communication, and self-regulation.

Supporting children’s emotional well-being is essential in early childhood education. Teaching relaxation techniques helps children manage stress hormones, build self-regulation skills, and create a sense of calm in the learning environment. Incorporating sensory play, mindful breathing, and calming art activities can be an effective way to promote relaxation. At ABC School Supplies, we offer a range of resources to support these practices in your early learning setting.
