The best thing I do with lil Hank when he has a tantrum is use laughter. As a mom, you can’t take things so seriously especially when your kid is two! I don’t like to refer to them as the terrible twos. Instead, I say they are the terrific twos! Usually when kids throw tantrums they just want your attention. Once I pick him up, he usually stops his screaming.

In my latest blog on Parenting.com, I'm talking about the terrible twos and how Hank and I have been finding that "sweet spot" with lil Hank. Most of the time I’m lucky and lil Hank doesn’t get out of control. He is a lot like Hank and is such a little gentleman. He knows how to treat others and has such a kind heart. I really am such a lucky mom!

What have you found works for dealing with tantrums?

Love, Kendra
