Big J is having some problem with expressing himself or rather I notice his frustration and “anger” when he tries to talk to me.

To date he is 4years and 3 months old and also currently in this “you are not my friend phase”.

I went to our mini library and took out “the feelings book” and started looking for other materials to walk him through this difficult time.

I found these beautiful feelings/ emotions printables online. Cut and laminated them for frequent uses.

Everyday I read to him the book, going those the pictures and explaining the new words for him. Hopefully he is able to express himself more.

Sometimes I am not sure if he is frustrated because no body understands what he is saying or it’s because of the language barrier.

We are still working on it.
