Emotional education is of paramount importance for the integral development of the human being. The objective was to analyze the perceptions of teachers about the impacts and changes in behavior after carrying out an emotional education program with children enrolled in early childhood education. Five teachers participated who performed an emotional education program in early childhood education with children from 3 to 5 years old from a private school located in Rio Grande do Sul. A semi-structured online interview was used to collect data and the responses were analyzed using Bardin’s content analysis. The teachers highlight the importance of an emotional education program and the ludic help in this process. The children showed improvement in learning and interpersonal relationships. It is concluded that an emotional education program in early childhood education has an educational and preventive purpose, allowing children to know about emotions and be able to evaluate and have more assertive behaviors in everyday situations.
