Moms share their tips and tricks of the trade:

                
Finger painting is a fun thing you can do with a toddler. I made edible finger paint, put down some paper, then stripped my little Picasso down to her diaper–she had a great time! 

The recipe: 1 Tbsp of water and drops of food colouring (liquid). Just mix and paint. When finished, put sticky child into the tub and rinse off (it did not stain her body). Enjoy Moms! –Angela, Markham, Ontario

    • 

  • By about five months old, crying becomes a form of communication.
    • 

  • Toddler tears are often a sign of frustration, but they can also become a tool young children use to get what they want.
    • 

  • The key is to teach children how to manage their emotional reactions to situations.
    • 

  • Sometimes toddlers just need another outlet for their emotions, such as jumping up and down instead of having a temper tantrum.
    • 

I haven’t met a parent yet who doesn’t feel a tug at their heart strings when their child cries. At the same time, I think most parents understand that crying is part of the language of early childhood. Here’s how to understand crying from baby to toddler.  To view the full story click here.
