Understanding Sensitivity in Children
Sensitive children have an increased awareness and responsiveness to the world around them. They may react more intensely to sensory stimuli, such as loud noises, bright lights, or strong smells. Emotionally, they are deeply attuned to the feelings of others and may experience their own emotions more intensely. These children often possess a rich imagination, exhibit empathy towards others, and are highly intuitive.
