Overcoming Bedtime Fears
28 december 2022 · 13 min
Is your toddler’s desire to delay dozing off driving you to distraction? Lees meer
Bedtime fears usually start at around two years and may last several years. They happen very commonly because children spend their days in imaginative play, and it is tough for them to turn that off at bedtime.
Even though there are many valid reasons for your toddler to fight at bedtime, you still need a chance to get some rest. Your needs matter and you have less to give when you need to recharge. So there is no need to feel guilty about wanting your child to sleep so you can take some time for yourself.
In this episode, I talk about bedtime fears and how to overcome them. I go into why children have those fears and explain why they tend to happen from a developmental perspective.
Stay tuned to learn how to lovingly, respectfully, and effectively manage your toddler’s bedtime fears.
Five things likely to contribute to your toddler’s bedtime fears:
Young kids experience separation anxiety, so it makes sense that they fuss when you leave the room.
Toddlers tend to be defiant by nature because they want more control over their world.
A toddler’s brain is still developing. So they have so little control over their emotions.
Toddlers do not understand the concept of time. So when you tell them you will see them in the morning, it seems forever away.
The frontal lobe of a toddler’s brain is still developing. That is the part that allows us to reason, problem-solve, and make plans. So they are not able to talk themselves down.
Show highlights:
Five things likely to contribute to bedtime fears from a developmental perspective.
Why is an early bedtime best?
The benefits of creating a short bedtime routine.
Some effective ways to manage your toddler’s bedtime fears.
The importance of creating a responsible and healthy bedtime routine.

How to Calm Tantrums
21 december 2022 · 13 min
Did you know that you can reduce troublesome tantrums by tapping into what’s causing them? Lees meer
Toddlers’ tantrums can be wild, irrational, and confusing. So it helps to understand that tantrums are a normal part of a toddler’s development because their brains are still developing.
When a tantrum happens, the toddler’s right brain, which is the part that is emotional, impulsive, and tuned into non-verbal cues, overwhelms the left brain and takes control. Fortunately, your adult brain is balanced, and you can use it to calm your toddler down.
Children cannot process anything when they are all worked up. So in this episode, I discuss the three phases of a tantrum and share strategies for managing toddlers' tantrums without losing your cool. Tune in to learn how to deal with tantrums in the present moment, and find out how and when to intervene to calm a tantrum down.
Show highlights:
Why must we handle tantrums calmly?
Why tantrums are likely as hard on your child as they are for you.
When are toddlers more likely to have a tantrum?
Ways to reduce your toddler’s tantrums.
How to deal with tantrums in the moment.
How and when to intervene to calm a tantrum down.
The three phases of a tantrum.
Things that could prolong tantrums.
The benefits of pausing to allow your nervous system to calm down.
How to teach your kids limits and help them move on after a tantrum.
What to avoid doing or saying.

Sibling Rivalry
14 december 2022 · 9 min
Did you know that treating siblings as equals fuels friction and fighting? Lees meer
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 strive for equality with our children, they will always tally up and try to figure out who got more than the others.
The more a child is validated and seen, the more secure they feel. In this episode, I focus on why children should be treated as individuals rather than equals and explain how treating kids as individuals improves sibling relationships.
Stay tuned for more!
Show highlights:
What happens when we strive for equality with our kids?
What happens when we treat our children as individuals?
What sibling rivalry is all about from the child's perspective.
The benefits of not trying to make everything fair, and focusing instead on treating each child as unique.
Why it is a good idea to make individuality a priority when giving your children gifts.
Should mealtime portions be the same for each child?
What sibling fights may be saying about what a child is feeling.
Why it is essential to spend some special-focus time daily with each child.

Separation Anxiety in Toddlers
7 december 2022 · 13 min
Do you dread the despair of difficult daily drop-offs? Lees meer
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 those painful partings will appear or fade away. Still, it is encouraging to know that children do outgrow separation anxiety.
Parents need to help their children handle separation in a healthy way. In today’s episode, I dive into how to do that. I also explain why you should never sneak out after dropping your toddler off and share something I discovered that made a massive difference after many weeks of difficult drop-offs.
Stay tuned for more!
Show highlights:
Why must you avoid waiting around to see if your child has settled down?
How to make your child feel seen and understood.
Why you should never sneak out.
The benefits of developing a goodbye ritual.
How to prepare your child for daily drop-offs.
How I solved my daughter’s drop-off problems.
The importance of staying on the same team and asking your child how you can help.
How reading books helps with separation anxiety.
A way to stay connected after you leave.
Some coping skills you can teach your child to practice.

Don't Force Sharing
30 november 2022 · 9 min
Did you know that toddlers cannot comprehend the concept of sharing? Lees meer
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 them.
Sharing is challenging for toddlers because they don't understand that separate individuals exist. That means they cannot see things from someone else’s point of view, which is necessary to know what sharing is. They also cannot fathom that some things belong to others, and their toddler's brains are still growing, so their impulse areas are not yet fully developed.
In this episode, I answer a question from a lovely mom and offer some helpful parenting tools to teach toddlers to stand up for themselves while also being kind and open-hearted.
Stay tuned for more!
Show highlights:
At what age do kids start understanding the concept of sharing?
What toddlers experience when they get forced to share early on.
The first step to giving a toddler some direction around sharing.
How to respond when your toddler grabs a toy from another child.
The benefits of using sportscasting to help your child resolve their problems.
What you can do when your toddler cries because they are not allowed to grab a toy from a friend.
How to prepare your child at home before taking them to the park.
What could happen when a child gets forced to share before they are ready?
Some powerful lessons to guide your child.

Do Time-Outs Work?
16 november 2022 · 9 min
Are time-outs truly the best way to tackle your toddlers’ tantrums? Lees meer
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 time-outs work, and if they do, at what cost. Stay tuned for more!
Show highlights:
Considering time-outs from a toddler’s perspective.
How time-outs may influence children’s future behavior.

What To Do When Toddlers Lie
9 november 2022 · 8 min
Has your toddler been telling tall tales? Lees meer
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 need to teach our kids that lying is not an acceptable way to overcome problems. In this episode, we explain how to teach kids right from wrong, confidently and calmly rather than punitively, and deal with toddlers’ lies effectively, to ensure that they diminish over time! Stay tuned for more!
What you will hear:
Why do kids under the age of three tell lies?
What is going on in your toddler’s mind when they tell tall tales?
Why toddlers act without thinking about consequences.
How to consider your toddler’s behavior when they lie.
Practical ways to promote honesty rather than punish your toddler for lying.
Why you should focus on the solution, not the problem.
How to help your kids become more inclined to admit their mistakes.

Thumb-Sucking: Do’s and Don'ts
2 november 2022 · 12 min
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. Lees meer
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. So, today let’s talk about how you can help your toddler break the habit.

How to Stop Your Toddler From Throwing Things
26 oktober 2022 · 10 min

How to Stop Your Child's Whining
19 oktober 2022 · 10 min
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. Lees meer
So, how can we help our kids communicate more effectively?
3 PRO-TIPS:
1. When you want to get through to a toddler, use playfulness. It works like magic because it speaks to them where they’re at developmentally and emotionally.
2. Try responding to whining in a whisper. For many kids, it works let a reset.
3. If your kids are whining because they’re tired, bored, hungry, or scared, you’ll need to take care of those needs first.

Should you force apologies?
28 september 2022 · 10 min

So, What Should You Do Instead? In this episode, dr cathryn discusses how to raise a child who shows respect and caring for others. And this includes research-based strategies on how to encourage your toddler to give heartfelt apologies. And lastly, a reminder, toddlers are growing and learning . . . and real change takes time.

22 augustus 2022 · 1 min
Toddlers Made Easy gives you the insight, tools, and confidence you need to not only handle anything toddler-related thrown your way —but prevent problem behaviours before they start.

About Dr. Cathryn:
I’m a pediatrician with more than 30 years of experience. I’ve written two books on parenting, The Parent Problem Solver and The Lull-A-Baby Sleep Plan. I’ve also consulted with hundreds of thousands of parents on how to help with their children’s problem behaviors.
But what makes me uniquely qualified to speak on this subject is that I’m a mom (of 4 kids!) — and I’ve been in your shoes.
I want to help you create an environment where you don’t wake up wishing the day was over. I never want you to turn down another opportunity to meet a friend for lunch or go to the park because you're scared of what your toddler might do.
It’s why I’ve created Toddlers Made Easy.
