Understand Your Toddler's Needs • Toddlers become cranky when they are hungry, tired, or uncomfortable. So, establish a routine for feeding, sleeping, and playtime to help them stay on track. • Toddlers crave attention and love, so make time for cuddles and playtime to help them feel secure and happy.
Manage Tantrums • Tantrums can be difficult to handle. Stay calm and avoid giving in to your child's demands, as this can reinforce negative behaviour. • Offer comfort and reassurance, and try to distract your child with a toy or activity.
Discipline with Positive Reinforcement • Positive reinforcement, like praising them for good behaviour or rewarding them, can be an effective way to discipline your toddler. • Avoid negative reinforcement, such as yelling or spanking, as this can lead to more tantrums and negative behaviour.
Take Care of Yourself • Parenting can be stressful, especially when dealing with a cranky toddler. So, make sure to take time for self-care and stress relief, such as exercise or meditation. • Remember that a happy and relaxed parent can better handle a cranky toddler.
