Modeling Emotional Connection: How Play Teaches Kids About Feelings

One of the key ways children learn is through observation—watching others and imitating their actions.

When adults model open conversations about feelings, children naturally pick up these habits. Naming emotions, expressing them, and sharing with others are valuable skills we can demonstrate ourselves, helping kids learn in the process.

Connecting Moments is a game designed for everyone to actively participate. Through play, children and adults alike learn to share, listen, laugh, and experience excitement together.

This game also gives you the opportunity to model important behaviors—listening, sharing, honesty, and mutual respect.
