Kádár Annamária - Mesepszichológia - Az érzelmi intelligencia fejlesztése gyermekkorban

Research proves that our success in life does not only depend on our intellectual abilities. Real success and - what's more important! - we can only achieve inner harmony and self-satisfaction if we are able to recognize our own and other people's emotions, create relationships, manage conflicts, cooperate, ask for help, delay our desires, persevere... In other words, if our emotional intelligence is developed.

The fairy tale is the most important tool for developing emotional intelligence, it is spiritual food that leaves traces in the child for life. On the one hand, the specific situation and intimate atmosphere of the story-telling provides emotional security, the calm, quiet and loving atmosphere in which you can rest, relax, and the rite with which you can end a busy and eventful day. But when listening to a story, the small child pays attention not only to the parent, but also to himself, creating a fantasy picture according to his own desires, which helps him to process his internal tensions, negative feelings, and fears accumulated during the day.
So let's give him the opportunity to climb to the top of the sky-high tree as a little canadian! The child who grows up listening to fairy tales will have his own mind as his magic wand, and his imagination and emotional intelligence will help him through trials.
How can we support him in this? This is why I wrote this book, which also contains ten stories about a little girl named Lilla, whose imaginary friend, Tündérbogyó, helps her solve her emotional conflicts. The stories are intended for children aged 4-9 and help them endure frustrations and disappointments, become aware of positive and negative emotions, tame their fears, deal with sibling jealousy, accept losses and play self-effacingly. I will tell the parents: I was the little girl who was afraid that the witch would tickle her feet, I took the little mouse home, and my grandfather came out after me with a face covered in shaving foam. Fairyberry was my inner voice, which I now personified in this form.
