Emocionalni razvoj djeteta predškolske dobi

Ovaj rad govori o emocionalnom razvoju djece u dojenačkoj i najranijoj dobi te ranom djetinjstvu te sastavnicama vezanim uz emocionalni razvoj djece. Osim što se dijete razvija tjelesno, motorički i spoznajno, dijete se od rođenja razvija i emocionalno pa tako razvija odnose prema sebi, ali i ljudima iz svoje okoline. Pomoću emocija djeca signaliziraju okolini svoje potrebe te stupaju u odnos s okolinom. Nije dovoljno da dijete samo pokazuje emocije, bitno je da ih i razumije i da ih regulira. O djetetovom temperamentu ovise interakcije djeteta s okolinom koje su ključne za emocionalni razvoj djeteta. Temperament je specifičnost svakog djeteta koja se iskazuje kao reaktivnost na okolinu i sposobnosti samoregulacije ponašanja. Svoje odnose s drugim ljudima započinje bliskom povezanošću s roditeljem ili drugom osobom uz koju se osjeća sigurno i voljeno. Ta povezanost naziva se privrženost. U razvoju empatije, koja je emocionalni odgovor na emocije koje dijete primjećuje kod drugih, najjasnije se očituju međusobni odnosi izražavanja vlastitih emocija te jednako tako razumijevanje tuđih emocijaThis paper discusses the emotional development of children in infancy, early age and early childhood as well as the components related to emotional development of children. Aside from physical, motorical and cognizant development, the child develops emotionally from birth as well and thus develops relationships with himself, but also with people from his / her environment. Through emotion, children signalize the environment their needs and interact with the environment. It is not enough for a child to only show emotions, it is important to understand them and to regulate them. The child's temperament depends on their interaction with the environment which is crucial to the emotional development of the child. Temperament is the specificity of each child that is expressed as reactivity to the environment and ability to self-regulate the behavior. His relationships with other people begin with a close relationship with a parent or some other person which makes him feels safe and loved. That connection is called affinity. Development of empathy, which is an emotional response to the emotions that the child perceives in others, is the most obvious manifestations of conection between expressing child's own emotions and their understanding of other people's emotions
