(Universidad de Cuenca, 2023-09-05) Contento Torres, Irma Irene; Tepán Villa, Diana Cristina; Dávalos Molina, Juana Catalina
This is a monographic work and its objective is to research the relationship between emotional development and children's literature. It is recognized the relevance of this topic in the integral formation of children, and children's literature is highlighted as an adequate didactic tool for its application in the classrooms of Early Childhood and High School Education. The study focuses on determining the significance of using children's literature as a resource to facilitate the emotional development of infants from 4 to 6 years old. For this purpose, documentary research with an explanatory descriptive approach was carried out, analyzing the two key categories: emotional development and children's literature, through the study of bibliographic sources. Furthermore, field work was carried out in an educational unit of the city of Cuenca, specifically in the classrooms of Initial II and Preparatory. During this stage, different genres of children's literature were applied, such as songs, stories and plays of their own authorship, with the purpose of contributing to the emotional development of the students. The results confirmed that children's literature, in its different genres, is an effective means to promote integral development, especially in the emotional area, during early childhood, since children can enhance their imagination, express, recognize and control their emotions and feelings, both their own and those of others.
