Sibling Rivalry

Toddlers Made Easy with Dr Cathryn ·

2022/12/14

Did you know that treating siblings as equals fuels friction and fighting? Sibling relationships are complex. Observational studies have shown that some siblings fight as often as eight times an hour! Yet those relationships are essential for shaping children, and from a developmental standpoint, sibling rivalry helps kids figure out their distinctive qualities. Siblings support one another and learn from each other. But they also compete for their parent's love and attention. So when we

Separation Anxiety in Toddlers

Toddlers Made Easy with Dr Cathryn ·

2022/12/07

Do you dread the despair of difficult daily drop-offs? The woeful look on a toddler’s face when parting makes it hard for parents to walk away without feeling heartbroken and guilty. Most children become clingy between eighteen months and three years of age, and all kids experience anxiety at some point in their early years. So it’s normal and expected for toddlers to feel sad and stressed when saying goodbye. Every child is different, and they all develop at their own pace, so we never know when

Don't Force Sharing

Toddlers Made Easy with Dr Cathryn ·

2022/11/30

Did you know that toddlers cannot comprehend the concept of sharing? Snatching toys and shouting “mine” is not a sign of selfishness in toddlers. It only happens because they have no idea what sharing is. Issues around sharing- or not sharing can cause a lot of uncertainty and embarrassment and may even lead parents to doubt themselves. That’s why we need to understand that toddlers are not being selfish when they fail to share. They are simply finding ways to understand the world around

2022/11/23

Are your toddler’s picky eating patterns perturbing you? Fussy eating habits and mealtime conflicts can be very frustrating! Food battles can cause a great deal of stress and may even lead us to encourage habitual behavior we later regret. It is way easier to learn a good habit than it is to break a bad one! So, today, I would like to help you avoid the pain of picky eating issues by discussing ways to prevent those problems before the behavior becomes entrenched. When we understand what is normal

Do Time-Outs Work?

Toddlers Made Easy with Dr Cathryn ·

2022/11/16

Are time-outs truly the best way to tackle your toddlers’ tantrums? Time-outs have been the go-to method for dealing with children’s undesirable behavior since the 1950s. From the age of two, most parents start considering what works and what does not. Many parents tend to worry about being too hard or too soft on their children, getting them to listen, or even messing them up. In this episode, I’m combining my years of first-hand experience with scientific research to discuss whether or not

What To Do When Toddlers Lie

Toddlers Made Easy with Dr Cathryn ·

2022/11/09

Has your toddler been telling tall tales? If so, don’t panic! All kids stretch the truth at times, and lying is a perfectly normal part of a toddler’s development. Even though it can be perplexing to hear your toddler tell unlikely stories, it is neither a reflection of bad character nor a sign of moral weakness! Lying is a complex skill. So, when two-year-olds do it, it is considered a sign of advanced cognitive capabilities and shows that they have an active imagination. Despite that, we still

Thumb-Sucking: Do’s and Don'ts

Toddlers Made Easy with Dr Cathryn ·

2022/11/02

Toddlers suck their thumb when bored, falling asleep, upset, and watching tv. It creates a yummy feeling, like a day at the spa. Over time, kids develop other calming skills and typically give the habit up. But what if they don’t? Most kids will stop sucking their thumbs around 2-4 years of age, or by the time the permanent teeth are ready to erupt. That is, as long as we don’t pester our kids about thumb-sucking. When we pressure our kids to stop, we may inadvertently cause more thumbsucking

How to Stop Your Child's Whining

Toddlers Made Easy with Dr Cathryn ·

2022/10/19

Kids whine for many reasons, but driving you crazy isn’t actually one of them. Toddlers lack sophistication… and moaning and groaning is their way of saying, “I need you. Please take care of me.” Instead of viewing whining as a toddler trying to manipulate you, remember that whining is a toddler's attempt at trying to be seen and heard. They just lack the tools to do this. So, how can we help our kids communicate more effectively?3 PRO-TIPS:1. When you want to get through to a toddler, use
