A feelings chart is a tool to help children identify and express their emotions. 💞 Save this post to use this feelings chart daily with your family.

Start the day by having each member identify how they are feeling in the morning. Throughout the day, family members can change how they are feeling and identify it using the chart as needed. This will help to spark dialogue about feelings and how family members can help or celebrate with one another.

Some benefits of using a feelings chart at home:
- Gives children the opportunity to think about how they feel and learn how to communicate it
- Helps children develop emotional literacy
- Helps children find words for their feelings

At Kiddie Academy, one essential center is the cozy corner. This special area provides children with a safe and comforting space where they can calm down and develop self-regulation skills. It's a warm, inviting spot away from the hustle and bustle of the classroom, designed for times when children feel sad, angry, frustrated, nervous, or tired. The cozy corner offers a place for kids to take a break, helping them to identify and regain control of their emotions.

Children at Academies around the nation are enjoying the summer weather with some outdoor playtime!

At Kiddie Academy®, we believe that learning occurs in and out of the classroom. Whether it's building forts from fallen branches, playing on the playground, or observing wildlife in its natural habitat, outdoor play provides children with a hands-on learning environment that ignites their imagination and sets the stage for academic success in years to come.

When it comes to instilling a love for our planet in children, literacy plays an important role.

Introducing young minds to engaging books about nature, animals, and conservation sparks their curiosity about the environment and empowers them to become responsible stewards of our Earth.🌱

A recent creative event organized by .gaithersburg is an excellent example of this. It beautifully demonstrated how to nurture both a love of reading and a respect for the world around us in future generations.
