- A few things that can set a toddler off
How we love our toddlers, but seriously, they could test the patience of a saint most days. Whether you’re in the throws of the terrible twos or currently have a threenager ruling your home, you may recognise a fair few of these tantrums starters.
And the tantrum begins because….
…you’ve given them the WRONG sippy cup
…it’s time to get dressed
…they want to go to nursery in their pyjamas
…they won’t leave home unless their life-size dolphin cuddly toy comes too
…you won’t let them bring the life-size dolphin to nursery
…it’s wellies or bare feet, no shoes will do
…they don’t want to get in the car
…they will only get in the car if they can strap themselves in
…they now don’t want to get out of the car
…they want ice cream for lunch
…it’s time to go home
…they don’t want to get in the car…again
…and of course, don’t want to get out of the car…again
…it’s bathtime
…it’s time to get out of the bath
…it’s bedtime
…they will only go to bed if they can wear their favourite dress
…you’ve said goodnight
…they are totally exhausted from all the tantrums
And the good news is, you get to go through it all again tomorrow! Love ‘em!
