Learning objectives
By the end of this session you will be able to:
- Explain the theoretical basis of normal emotional development in the pre-school child
- List the factors that promote or impair emotional development

In this session, we consider the theoretical basis for the emotional development of the pre-school child and the factors that influence this. We also look at how early emotional development can affect mental health in later life.
