Whoever said that handling toddlers was an easy task! They don’t call it the terrible twos for nothing! The energy and patience that one needs to garner to handle toddlers can leave you with little time for other pursuits. But as a mom who has been through that toddler parenting stage, I can vouch for the fact that handling the inquisitive mind and its eagerness to absorb and assimilate is an enriching experience in itself.
Parenting toddlers brings up diverse issues, from temper tantrums and potty training to disciplining and eating habits. How can I get my little one adjusted to a toddler bed and make the transition from a crib as smooth as possible? When is my child ready to be potty trained? How do I deal with an aggressive toddler? Sibling rivalry, laying down rules, handling small illnesses and more….Typical issues that baffle first-time parents.
In the course of the next few weeks, hear a mother share her first-hand experience at handing and parenting a toddler. Each child is unique but the foundations of many an adult personality is laid during these formative years. Be it building emotional character or establishing a cognitive connection with the world around, a parent caring for a toddler surely plays a major role. True, it calls for enormous amounts of patience, stamina and love….but with a parent that is never in short supply!
Teach your child how to handle anger, learn how to make your house safer for an inquisitive toddler, inculcate a love for learning………but most importantly enjoy and cherish the experience coz your toddler wont be one for long – Live the moment to its fullest!
