Tantrums don’t always mean something is wrong. They’re a normal part of learning to manage big emotions and an important step towards school readiness.

They are a sign that your toddler is learning how to manage emotions that are too big for the brain they currently have.

That process is one of the most important things a child can develop before school.
Emotional regulation is a core building block of school readiness – and it is built through exactly these moments. The ones that feel hardest.

Stay calm, keep the boundary, and reassure them they’re safe. They’ll recover faster than you think.
