Teaching emotional intelligence (SEL) with picture books
Stories give children words for their feelings — plus three simple questions to ask after reading.
This is sample content written only to demonstrate the template.
This is a sample article. When children see a character feel scared, angry or happy, it becomes easier to recognise and express their own feelings.
Three questions after the story
- How do you think they felt?
- Have you ever felt like that?
- What would you have done?
There are no right or wrong answers — the goal is listening and empathy.
