The Toddler Handbook: The Secret To Riding Out Tantrums

Welcome to The Toddler Handbook! Every week for four weeks, we'll be bringing you a special This Glorious Mess bonus episode about the highs and lows of the toddler years, enlisting an expert to give you the advice you need.

Toddler tantrums. Do those words alone send shivers down your spine? Tantrums are so hard to navigate, as they can make you as upset as your little one. On the last episode of The Toddler Handbook, we're lucky to be joined by Dr Justin Coulson from Happy Families to shed some light on the issue. Find out why tantrums happen, what to say (and what not to say) to your toddler and how to chat to them about their big feelings afterwards.
