Synopsis

Hugs and smiles and playtime: If only parenting 2 to 5-year-olds was this simple. But any parent of a toddler knows that it, also, often, requires dealing with whining, tantrums, "No, I won't" and other generally naughty behaviour that tests the limits of your ingenuity and patience. How can parents balance nurturing behaviour that demonstrate love and affection with the discipline all children need to learn and thrive? COMMON SENSE PARENTING® OF TODDLERS AND PRESCHOOLERS shows parents how discipline can be more about teaching than punishment and more positive than negative for both you and your child.

With updated parenting strategies and clear explanations for how and why they should be used, this book will become your go-to guide for developing a calmer, skill-focused parenting approach. Learn how to set reasonable expectations based on your child's age, development level and abilities. Discover the parent's version of "Show and Tell" to both prevent problems and correct misbehaviour and see how you can create a parenting plan that will help you and your child stay calm in even the most turbulent situations.
