PRP005: Baby emotion management – Interpreting Emotions.

Show Notes: Baby Emotion Management - Part 1, Interpreting emotions This episode explores social referencing. This is where young children look to adults to interpret ambiguous situations or emotions. Particularly, I apply this to the emotions and sensations that babies need to interpret when they are being placed in their cot.
