CPD- When Children Can't say what they feel

  Practical Strategies for Early Years

Do you ever find yourself unsure how to respond when a child is overwhelmed, frustrated, or unable to express their emotions?


About This Session

This 2-hour live CPD session is designed to help early years practitioners better understand and respond to children who struggle to express their emotions. Rather than focusing on theory alone, this session will explore practical, real-life strategies that you can use immediately in your setting.


This CPD is designed to be interactive, practical, and relatable, with real-life examples, discussion opportunities, and simple strategies that can be applied immediately at home.



What You Will Learn

In this session, you will:

  • Understand what children’s behaviour is really communicating
  • Learn what to say (and what not to say) in emotional moments
  • Explore why some children struggle to express their feelings
  • Gain simple, effective strategies to support emotional regulation
  • Learn how to use art as a meaningful tool for emotional expression
    “This session is designed to be practical, supportive, and directly applicable to your everyday practice.”

Why This Matters

Many children in early years do not yet have the words to express how they feel.

Without the right support, this can lead to:

  • frustration
  • challenging behaviour
  • withdrawal

When we begin to understand behaviour as communication and use the right approaches everything changes.

Who Is This For?

This session is suitable for:

  • Early years practitioners
  • Parents of 2 to 5 year old children
  • Nursery staff
  • Teaching assistants
  • Educators working with young children
  • Anyone supporting children’s emotional development
