  <default_description>Who says your baby can&amp;#8217;t &amp;#8220;talk&amp;#8221; about his or her feelings? In fact, babies&amp;#8217; actions often speak louder than words! Understanding those actions&amp;#8211;and responding appropriately to them&amp;#8211;is the key to giving your child a head start to a healthy and happy future. Now the authors of the bestselling &lt;i&gt;Baby Minds&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i&gt;Baby Signs &lt;/i&gt;translate the latest research on the rich inner life of babies into practical, fun activities that will foster your child&amp;#8217;s emotional skills during the most critical period&amp;#8211;between birth and age three. This comprehensive guide will help you help your child express emotions effectively, develop empathy, form healthy friendships, and cope with specific challenges. Learn how to:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;#8226;Talk with your child about emotions in order to help him recognize and control his own&lt;br&gt;&amp;#8226;Use face-to-face interaction, tone of voice, song, and touch to make your infant feel safe and secure&lt;br&gt;&amp;#8226;Start a gratitude journal to help your child appreciate the good things in life&lt;br&gt;&amp;#8226;Nurture self-esteem with &amp;#8220;try, try again&amp;#8221; activities and simple chores&lt;br&gt;&amp;#8226;Create a &amp;#8220;What are they feeling&amp;#8221; deck of cards to help your child understand and practice emotions &lt;br&gt;&amp;#8226;Use games and songs to help your child practice self-control&lt;br&gt;&amp;#8226;Overcome temper tantrums, aggression, shyness, separation anxiety, and other challenges&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Whether your child is as easy to raise as a sunflower, as difficult as the prickly holly bush, requires the patience of the delicate orchid, or is as active as the exuberant dandelion, &lt;i&gt;Baby Hearts&lt;/i&gt; helps you provide the &lt;br&gt;emotional support that may be the most important gift a parent can give.</default_description>
