Taming tantrums!
If your little one throws a tantrum or displays other unacceptable behaviour, simply say a firm 'no', turn around and walk away, not making any further eye contact or conversation. Keep moving as your little one will probably follow you and make their feelings known increasingly loudly. Play music to help soothe you (and your toddler). By letting your child get to you now, you would be the audience, your child the actor! Remove the audience value and no actor will perform!
