Self-regulation is the ability to control thoughts, feelings, and actions to achieve goals, especially in early childhood. It involves following instructions, calming down, deep breathing, and waiting for one's turn. Children's brain regions linked to self-regulation grow quickly during the preschool years, making them developmentally far more equipped to acquire and apply self-regulation skills (2020). Teachers play a crucial role in helping students develop these abilities by modeling composure, implementing routines, and fostering emotionally supportive environments. Techniques like co-regulation, breathing techniques, structured play, and visual cues can also be effective.
