Spoilt behaviour
My LO is at home with me SAHM - recently she’s been getting slightly angry when she doesn’t get her way. She throws the toy and stamps her feet angrily. Sometimes she sees someone else playing with something that she likes and starts moaning or wants to snatch it. It’s not always but it’s when she really wants something. I want to nip it in the bud.
I take her to baby groups and lots of stay and plays so she can parallel play and see other kids but if you have any tips on how I can stop this I’d appreciate it.

I do not think that it's spoilt behaviour and it's not something that can be stopped . It's a developmental phase that toddlers go through. The only way to make it better is through understanding and patience of her feelings. Toddlers have no impulse control and lots of strong emotions. Explaining that she can play with something after someone else is done and trying to swap toys with other kids in the moment sometimes has worked for us . He still gets upset that he cannot have what he wants but has much calmer reactions.
