Tantrums

Hi! I want to know if anyone else is struggling with this. I feel like my little girl is constantly whingeing and complaining. It wears thin so quickly! I’ve been doing more with her to try to keep her entertained but it doesn’t make it any better. It feels like terrible twos has hit early 😅

Tantrums

How are we handling tantrums. Throwing themselves down. Turning red and screaming on the top of their lungs. I use to work at a daycare 25 years ago and it’s all a blur lol. I remember all the lesson activities we use to do so I love doing all that stuff with him. But the tantrums I don’t remember how I use to h...

Suddenly stopped walking

Any other little ones doing this? My daughter finally took her first steps unaided, walking between me and my husband, two weeks ago. Since then she has been getting a little more confident each day and walking a little farther on her own, from the sofa to the table etc. The last two days however she just won’t walk...

It looked so much worse than this, but I put cream on her knees. I think she has finally learnt though to slow down since this incident 🙄🤞🏻

Shoes & Walking

My son turned 14m on 4/5 - he’s not walking independently yet. Yesterday we went to an Easter egg hunt and put shoes on him for the first time for him to walk around assisted with. I noticed he was dragging his one foot behind him when walking. He doesn’t do this when he’s using any of his walking toys or pushing an...

If your child didn’t go to nursery/kindergarten, did they still start talking at the same time as their peers?

My son is 22 months and still doesn’t talk. Almost everyone we come across says it’s because he is not in nursery and once he starts he will pick straight up.. I know a few kids that didn’t go to nursery and still spoke by his age so I don’t understand why it’s almost always 100% because he isn’t in nursery.. I’m cu...
