Toddlers live in the moment. When they want something, they want it now. But learning self-control and delayed gratification will set up young children for success in school and in social settings. Includes tips for parents and caregivers.
It’s hard to wait, especially when you’re a toddler. Practicing patience is the key. If you’ve got a frustrated little one at home or in childcare, try this book to help make waiting less frustrating. Teach toddlers to use waiting time to watch the world around them, listen to music, tell stories, sing songs, draw pictures, and move or stretch. In this book, children learn the phrase, “I can wait a while. I can do it with a smile.”
