How do I handle tantrums?

Tantrums are normal as toddlers experience big emotions they can't yet express. Stay calm, ensure their safety, and acknowledge their feelings ('I see you're really frustrated'). Avoid giving in to demands during a tantrum as this reinforces the behavior. After it passes, offer comfort and move on without dwelling on it.
