Struggling

Struggling with my boys behavior, he is constantly climbing, attempting to touch potential dangerous objects in the kitchen, climbing out of his car seat on all car journeys making driving to nursery difficult, then difficult to get him into his car seat, running away when outside, very repetitive with his routines only having to do something once the. He wants it part of his routine each time. I.e. Had a cold recently so been having paracetamol but now he is better we are having meltdowns because he wants his paracetamol before bed like he has been having due to his cold. When leaving nursery seen a helicopter now expects to see the helicopter each day after nursery so has a melt down drops to the floor etc... can anyone relate? Any tips? Thanks in advance

Tbh it sounds like typical 3 year olds. My boys is abit crazy atm but always been a easy boy. Try to hang in there it should pass.

I’ve a we girl and parts of this very relatable. Asking for calpol out of habit she had been sick recently as well, pulling chairs up to help make dinner (she has plastic knives so I let her chop veg) but despot being told not allowed near hob she thinks she’s a big girl and can. Part of them growing up

3 year old boys are something else aren’t they! 😰 I saw a tip once for the car seat where if you stick the rough side of some Velcro on the button it means they won’t undo it because it’ll be sharp on their fingers. Haven’t had to try it myself yet though! In general I find it helps to prepare him for situations, manage his expectations, give him choices wherever possible and give him little jobs to do which he loves!
