Synopsis:
Hugs and smiles and playtime: if only parenting 2 - 5 year olds was this simple. But any parent of a toddler or preschooler knows that it too often requires dealing with whining tantrums, 'No, I won't' and other generally naughty behaviours that test the limits of your ingenuity and patience. How can parents balance nurturing behaviours that demonstrate love and affection with the discipline all children need to live and learn? COMMON SENSE PARENTING OF TODDLERS AND PRESCHOOLERS show you how discipline can be more about teaching than punishment and more positive than negative for you and your child. Included are: * How to set reasonable expectations based on your child's age, development, and abilities * How to use a 'show and tell' manner to both prevent problems and correct behaviour * How to use praise like a compass, to help your child stay on the right path * How to create plans for staying calm for you and your child * How to use consistency, consequences, and practice to help your child learn what you expect of him or her. * How to celebrate special rituals and everyday routines as cherished family traditions.
