Hi everyone

How is everyone managing/coping with their little ones transition from 17 to 18 months. How are you going with the new world of meltdowns and tantrums???

I can’t say I’ve noticed anything major yet, with a 3 year old and an 18 month old the dynamics are full-on but we have tried to make sure there is enough to engage them both. It’s usually the power struggles or battle of possession that causes issues which I think is totally normal! We have a playroom and sometimes separate them so each have time to play without each other always there to pester. My 3 year old has activities/games he does without her because it’s not age appropriate or unsafe for her. We learn as we go and go outside when we can!

This is 3rd time round for me, and I forgot how mentally exhausting it can be, but otherwise not too bad!

I was really hoping the terrible 2’s would happen after he turned 2 😂 But apparently it doesn’t always work that way lol. I’m not sure I’ve got any great words of wisdom for dealing with meltdowns and tantrums.
