Trusted childcare experts offer advice for those tricky toddler transitions...
Dr Miriam Stoppard, author of You and Your Toddler (£5.99 Dorling Kindersley) says, 'Tantrums are the only way a toddler knows how to cope with frustration. The only tactic you can use is to discourage them - ignore them until the tantrum dies down. Without attention, a toddler has no reason to continue the tantrum. If your toddler is in a safe place, walking away can also stop a tantrum.'
