Terrible Twos: Top Tips To Keep Your Toddler Happy & Healthy

Expanding your family by bringing a new life into the world is one of the most beautiful experiences, but it is most definitely not without stress. When your child reaches toddler age and they begin to walk and talk, the phrase ‘terrible twos’ really proves true, and any hope you had of a quiet moment alone would seem all but lost. However, their progression can actually be used to your advantage, as there are several different things you can do to ensure that they are happy and healthy during this time and help to reduce the potential chaos they can cause. If you want to know more about how to properly care for your little rascal and make sure that they can have as much fun as possible before they have to head to school, then read on to discover some of the most handy hacks that you can begin to implement today! 

The Right Fuel For Fun

Though it’s somewhat unfair to deny your child completely of sweet treats and other fast food options, ensuring that you provide them with the right nutritious fuel for their bodies to have enough energy to run around and explore properly is just so important. The energy that they will manage to retrieve from junk food like chocolate and crisps will only last for a very short period, and soon after they will crash and become grumpy and tired. To avoid this and instead provide them with all of the energy they need to function normally, you must teach them to have a positive relationship with fruit and vegetables and supplement their diet with some kind of toddler formula to ensure that they have all of the vitamins and minerals that contribute to ultimate wellbeing and encourage normal growth. This will also help their behaviour, as limiting bad foods will also reduce the amount of preservatives and E numbers that they consume, which can cause them to effectively ‘bounce off the walls’. 

Make Learning Fun

Having all of this energy without burning it off will leave your little ones bored and make bed time a hellish experience. However, allowing them to spend their days completely monotonous and pointless activities is equally as negative, so you must put effort into finding ways to plan each day as a fun learning opportunity. Making education enjoyable really isn’t difficult, as there are so many different things you can get up to that will teach them valuable life lessons that they will see as nothing more than happy playtime with mom and dad. A quick search online will show you the endless number and word games for toddlers that can really help their maths and English skills get started, and you will get the chance to bond with your little one through hours of play. If you have access to a garden or green space, consider growing some fruit or vegetables so they can begin to view and understand where their food comes from, and the importance of cultivation and caring for Mother Nature.
