When children develop a pattern of feelings and emotions, that is an indicator that a child has developed a sense of self. Once a child develops feelings and emotions, it shows a sign of them starting to understand themselves because they must deal with developing self-sense. Usually when children start to develop feelings and emotions, they tend to get confused because they are starting to figure out who they truly are.
Toddlers just transitioned from being a baby to a toddler, they can talk walk and go to school, so they are just starting to have somewhat of an understanding of life it is just not the strongest understanding. That is why it is so hard to explain to toddler's certain questions they ask due to their capacity to 100% understanding. Whereas in your early childhood you can learn and comprehend more. “Children in middle and late childhood have a more realistic sense of self than do those in early childhood, and they better understand their strengths and weaknesses” (Lally & Valentine-French, 2017). Seeing that even children in middle and late childhood have a more realistic sense it shows that children in their early childhood would have more of a realistic sense over toddlers Parents could help develop a child's self-sense by being a good example in the household. When I say good example I mean, the world is filled with a lot of crazy different things, so parents need to prepare them for that, so that way when they see it, they can develop themselves into the people they think they are to take it head on. If a child is constantly seeing something being done by their parents, they will start to question it and question themselves.
The daughter of my friend is 6 years old and goes to school and gets taught a lot of new things that previous generations were never taught to before; she usually always hangs around adults or is around adult conversations. She started to question herself and start to have self-sense we thought it was odd since she is at such a youthful age, but we realized that she hangs around many older people she has a mentality that is grown, so this stimulated something in her brain to tell her to think as a grown person and we believe this triggered herself sense.
