Having a Toddler isn't easy for us or them! It can be one of the hardest times. Hence the name "Terrible Twos" Here are some simple ways to make things a little easier.

1. Stay consistent with your Rules "Dont Let up with boundaries or you child will walk all over you and it will get worse over time." It's ok to walk away and let them cry, Don't pay attention to their fits!, A simple firm NO will do, If nothing seems to be working try time outs and take away a toy. A reasonable time out is a minute of every year. So a 2 year ols would be in time out for 2 mins.

2. Keep Them busy! " When they get bored is when they start to get into things and become more disruptive, try Art time like coloring or crafts, reading to them, snack time, movie time or even nap time. Try doing a pre-school from home and a set routine everyday to help your child learn and stay busy!

3. Involve them in small tasks like cooking cleaning and make them fell wanted and useful.

4. Share your attention when other people are around " When daddy is home and you are cuddling up with him on the couch tell your child to come up and lay with you guys!

5. POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT is the key!! always encourage your child to do there best and if they get frustrated keep there spirits up.

6. Make potty training Fun!! Give your child stickers or goody bags when they do a good job!

The first three years of your childs life is when they are learning the most and at a fast pace they are like little energizer bunnies and little sponges that pick up on everything!! Try to be as patient with your child as possible and dont feel bad if you need to walk away sometimes and let your child cry
