How to cultivate children's emotional intelligence
Emotional intelligence mainly refers to people's qualities in emotion, emotion, will and frustration tolerance. Emotional intelligence determines the success or failure of a person's love, marriage, study, work, interpersonal relationship and even career to a greater extent than IQ. Emotional intelligence is the real master of life achievement. 0-3 years old is the first critical period for the formation and development of baby's personality, habits and will quality. Parents should seize this critical period and give their babies adequate EQ education.

Six points to keep in mind in cultivating children's EQ:

The first point: sympathy and love.

Children are compassionate from birth, and a 9-month-old baby will cry when he sees another baby crying. This is the simplest and most primitive expression of compassion. As the child grows up, you should help him to further cultivate this fine quality in his daily life and play. Occasionally, you can ask your child: What should you do to make other children happy? How did you make the children angry today? Why are you doing this? This method can help children to establish a harmonious relationship with others and cultivate their love for others.

The second point: financial habits

Alan (pseudonym) lets children subconsciously know the value of every dollar by taking them shopping together. At first, the children were surprised that the money disappeared so quickly. Now he will understand and be glad that the money has helped them so much! In addition, you can also teach children (at least 8-year-old children) money and let them buy what they like. For the first time, the child became the master of money and personally dominated it. I don't know what to do. You can give him some careful off-site guidance. Tell him how to plan and spend the money correctly. Cultivating children's good consumption habits from an early age will benefit him for life.

The third point: concentration and sense of responsibility

Encourage and strive to make children concentrate wholeheartedly on a hobby or extracurricular activities. If all kinds of activities flock to her this week, she will not only practice ballet, but also play the piano and draw pictures. In this way, her children will be exhausted and learn nothing. On the contrary, if you just carefully choose her favorite extracurricular activities for her, she will not only be energetic and devoted to her studies, but also cultivate a strong sense of what she is engaged in and what she belongs to.

The fourth point: be honest.

Children will inevitably lie, so you must teach them patiently. Children aged 6-7 will soon realize their lies and feel guilty and ashamed, but what you have to do is to let them get rid of all psychological pressure and reassure them that you won't scold them. When a child can frankly point out the wrong behavior of others, you should encourage and praise his brave and upright behavior.

Fifth point: Don't refuse to be brave.

Today, the child is very worried: she thinks that a classmate's practice is incorrect, but she doesn't know whether to say it or not. Julie (a pseudonym) told her story: in the class cadre election, a friend asked her to vote for herself, but this was not her original intention. She secretly voted for another classmate. My friend lost the election because she lost the vote, but Julie didn't tell her everything. Julie said with shame, "From then on, I vowed to speak out bravely as long as I thought it was right. Julie's speech infected and inspired her daughter, who knew how to face and deal with some things.

Sixth point: learn to understand others.

One day, Alice found that the students began to cry because her 6-year-old son loves to laugh and didn't invite them to his classmate's birthday party.

Alice didn't directly blame her son, but led him to say, How would you feel if you weren't invited? The son immediately realized that his behavior had hurt his classmates, and he immediately invited them to his birthday party. Teach the child how to understand and be kind to others through a seemingly trivial thing that has benefited him a lot.
