Conflict - An Opportunity To Teach
In this heartwarming and insightful episode, clinical social workers Kristina and Heather explore the transformative power of conflict in preschool settings. They share how conflicts can be powerful learning opportunities, offering children a chance to develop essential skills like emotional regulation, communication, and problem-solving. Instead of seeing conflicts as problems to solve, they encourage a mindset shift—viewing these moments as chances to guide children in expressing their feelings, identifying their needs, and practicing resolution strategies. With a focus on calmness, empathy, and patience, Kristina and Heather explain how adults can create a nurturing environment that supports growth and emotional development.
