| “EQ” stands
for emotional quotient, adopted from the
term “IQ” (intelligence quotient). Emotional intelligence
was first described by psychologists John Mayer and Peter
Salovey in 1990 as the capacity to perceive emotion, integrate
it in thought, understand it, and manage it. |

| EQ skills are not the opposite
of IQ or cognitive skills! Each contributes to what it means
to be an “intelligent person.” However, a well-developed
EQ is more likely to bring desired happiness
in life and success in personal relationships. Though IQ can
be viewed as an unchangeable inherited trait, EQ
is more susceptible to nurturing and development. Even more,
by stimulating emotional development early in life, academic
skills will be given the best environment in which to blossom.
We recognize the fact that early emotional experiences
set the stage for all learning in childhood! |
|
| BabyEQ is devoted
to helping parents and other caregivers “educate the heart”
through products that encourage making emotional language and expression
central themes of interaction with young children.
Never in the history of our society has there been a greater
need for teaching children how to manage their feelings. Indeed,
the 21st century baby needs to be an "EQ Baby!"
