Camilla McGill shares three steps to calm a toddler tantrum: stay calm yourself, acknowledge what the child feels, and soothe their nervous system. The caregiver's own breath and tone matter as much as what you say.
Here's a reminder of the 3 things that we've been talking about. 1, stop, breathe, and stay calm yourself. 2, acknowledge your child's feelings with some emphasis in your voice. And 3, work on ways to calm your child's nervous system away from the tantrums, which will then help during the tantrums. So these are powerful ways to help your child.
