18 - 24 Months

Now's the time you'll face new challenges such as teething and weaning.

Welcome to Planet Toddler! And to all the parenting joys and puzzles that come with it. Now that your child has learnt to stand – quite literally – on his own two feet, he’s desperate to stand on them figuratively, too. Trouble is, much as he wants to do his own thing, he’s not always up to it – and that can frustrate him like crazy!

In this part of our website, you’ll find expert advice on handling a frustrated toddler and heading off tantrums before they happen. You’ll also find heaps of other great tips on parenting a toddler – from choosing the right toys to sorting out sleep problems to dishing up super-tempting food for a fussy, faddy eater. One small click for Mum (or Dad) means one giant leap for Mum-kind!
