How Do You Stop Toddler Tantrums Before They Start?
Toddler tantrums can occur at any time. You never quite know when they may appear. Typically they tend to happen when you are standing in the check out line of a crowded department or grocery store. With a toddler screaming at the top of his lungs and the judgmental eyes of 100 strangers staring at you, what can you do? During a toddler tantrum, communication will be problematic at best. Typically, toddlers have tantrums due to frustration which can be caused by boredom, hunger or confusion. Instead of stressing out every time you go to the store, try these proactive approaches to help prevent temper tantrums. Establish a solid foundation of communication with your toddler. Speaking to your child actually encourages language development skills. It helps them become more effective and confident in their own ability to express their feelings. Use simple to understand words and sentences. Get straight to the point and avoid extraneous words that are not necessary for their comprehension.
