Parenting Snapshots #2: Handling public toddler temper tantrums

Temper tantrums: Handling them in publicDon’t you just love a good temper tantrums?

You don’t, really, are you sure?!?!

Tantrums are one of the least endearing parts of being a parent, particularly if the temper tantrums are kicking off in a public place, and your child is beating the bejesus out of you, the floor, and everything else in their vicinity…

So today, we are chatting to Kate Barlow again from The Parent Consultancy, to get a wee bit of advice on how to manage public toddler tantrums.

We cover:

  • What do we do when our child has a tantrum in public?
  • What must we avoid doing?
  • What is your advice about “those looks”?
  • How do we deal with our child if they are hitting/punching as part of the tantrum?

So come on over, and pull up a chair :-D

What do you think? Do you have anything to add? How have you managed temper tantrums from your toddler in public? Do you find it easy? Any tips to share, we would love to hear from you in the comments below.
