If you are a parent of a toddler, you may need this list of books for parenting toddlers. I am a grandparent of a toddler! What a roller coaster ride it is to know a toddler and experience their tantrums with them.
It is not easy parenting or grandparenting toddlers! Some days can really be a lot of fun with them–if you are lucky enough to go a whole day without a tantrum. Then, if you are having a day full of tantrums, that is a really bad day! Your toddler could be hungry, tired, teething, sick–who knows sometimes? Sometimes you have a pretty good idea why they are behaving the way they are, but other days you just have no clue. At least that is how I feel with my 2 year old granddaughter. My goodness!!
Here are some books that may save your sanity!
