Book Description
My 3-Year-Old Has Not Had a Temper Tantrum in 4 Months. Here's the One Thing I Did: The famous supermarket meltdown - is there any parent who doesn't dread walking through a candy and chocolate-filled store alongside a hyperactive toddler with a massive sweet tooth? Babies are cute and (typically) calm. Older children can communicate well. Toddlers fall in the "in-between" category, which means they want independence but they still don't know how to act. There's a reason why the age is called the terrible twos, and most parents will confirm that this is one of the most challenging moments in a parent-child relationship. A couple of things contribute to toddlers being so notoriously difficult to deal with, and we often forget the biggest one: The world is a completely different place through the eyes of a child. Filled with excitement and stimuli, it can easily get overwhelming. And once a toddler becomes overwhelmed, all hell breaks loose. Behold the mighty whining, screaming, biting, and full-on meltdowns. Even if you have the patience of a saint, you will lose it after the fifth breakdown of the day. So, what do parents of peaceful and happily beaming toddlers do differently? There's one profound and critical change they introduce into their everyday routine. You don't need to be a child psychologist to understand how this change works and what it does to strengthen communication, encourage good behavior, and eliminate stubborn displays forever. In How to Discipline a Toddler, you will discover: The #1 way to talk to young kids so that they will listen (and more importantly, understand!) Methods for no-drama discipline that get results What spanking does to your child and why physical punishment should never be employed How to navigate a child through an almighty tantrum and put an end to it in 5 minutes or less Best strategies for handling fussy eating, aggression, potty training issues, and the dreaded bath-time The one discipline mistake most parents are guilty of and what to do instead 5 ways in which calling your kid "bad" is doing more damage than good Age-appropriate discipline methods that work from ages 1 to 3+, whether you're dealing with a child who isn't listening, or a biter Zen strategies for staying composed when a toddler is pushing your buttons Ways to create bonding activities that are fun and improve communication skills How to become the hero that your child would want to emulate in every aspect of life And much more. Most types of bad behavior can be curbed as early as at the age of a few months old. The sooner you get started with positive discipline, the better behaved your child will be as they grow. Whether you're new to parenting or you've had years of experience yet still struggle, you don't need to employ complex educational and disciplinarian approaches to get a good outcome. Things as simple as effective communication and positive reinforcement can give you the outcome you've been yearning from day one. Discipline is not something you should dread due to lack of experience. Most parents are not aware of how to handle unusual situations and kids don't come with an instruction manual (or a warranty). You will make mistakes, but these are an important part of the learning journey both you and your little one are on. Toddler discipline can be easy and empowering for everyone involved in the process. If you want to know exactly what will work at every age and stage, scroll up and click the "Add to Cart" button now.
