How can I prevent my toddler from having tantrums?

Preventing toddler tantrums often involves understanding their triggers and providing a consistent routine. Can you share what usually sets off your child's tantrums?

They often happen when I say no to them or when they're tired.

That’s common! Setting clear boundaries and ensuring they have enough rest can help. Have you tried offering choices to give them a sense of control?

No, I haven't tried that. How would that work?

You can offer simple choices, like "Do you want to wear the red shirt or the blue shirt?" This can reduce resistance and empower them.

That sounds helpful! Any other tips?

Yes! Staying calm during a tantrum and acknowledging their feelings can also make a big difference. Would you like more strategies?
