Stella has been developing over the course of the past several months a real ability to show empathy towards others. Especially when they are her age or younger. If she hears a baby cry in a store she seems genuinely concerned, when others around her are happy, she is happy. Tonight when a friend of hers got in a bit of trouble at a birthday party, Stella heard him crying from the other room and kept saying his name to me and pointed to where he was, this was upsetting her. I rented a book from the library about feelings, as she has started telling me 'happy' lately. In this book there are pictures of kids showing each feeling.. scared, hurt, happy, proud, shy etc. We've been experimenting with making these different faces and it has brought a lot of laughs!. Here are some of them...
Her HAPPY face
SAD face
(not too) ANGRY face
SUPRISED face
That is so cute! I personally like the "angry" face the best! :-)
