Mad, Mad, Mad

Flipping from sad to mad can make for a bad day, but Baby is learning some tricks for getting the happy back.

Sometimes Baby is sad. And sometimes mad, mad, MAD Baby screams and falls to the floor, and a spectacular tantrum follows, from furious crying to the final flop. What happens when Baby wants to stop, but even hugging a beloved blankie doesn't dissolve the cranky? Maybe a walkabout is in order, with some mindful breathing to boot? Master of toddler expression Leslie Patricelli turns the focus to feelings in a relatable episode offering some tips for helping the mad go away.
