When young children experience intense emotions, tantrums can provide them with a healthy way to express their feelings. They can occur for a variety of reasons, from being overwhelmed by too much stimulation to feeling frustrated and misunderstood.

With the help of a supportive, patient parent, kids can learn to recognize and manage their emotions and eventually replace tantrums with more effective ways of communicating. As children grow, they can learn to express themselves with words, which can help them better regulate their emotions and navigate challenging situations.

Young children aged 1-3 are discovering the power of their actions and learning to express their needs, feelings, and desires. This age can be an exciting and rewarding time for parents, as toddlers learn to regulate their emotions by using tantrums to try to comprehend and alter their environment and communicate their feelings.

With patience and understanding, this time can be a positive experience for both parent and child. Older children often demonstrate their learning of safe ways to express and manage feelings.
