A practical guide to everyday toddler challenges

Devon Kuntzman’s guide organizes toddlerhood’s familiar flashpoints—from tantrums, sleep and potty training to screen time, sibling conflict and teeth-brushing battles—into quick-reference chapters. It connects children’s behavior with brain development and sensory needs, then offers scripts and tools for responding to difficult moments, setting respectful limits and encouraging independence. The book also addresses the parent’s side of the exchange: managing big emotions, recovering after mistakes and easing pressure to be a “perfect” parent. Its scope is children ages one to five, with 27 common challenges included.

In this comprehensive guidebook, globally recognized toddler expert Devon Kuntzman, PCC provides you with quick-reference tools and tips for effective, healthy discipline to help you overcome the everyday challenges of this critical developmental period.

Many parents feel overwhelmed by this stage that often comes with tantrums, sleep struggles, hitting, and potty training.

How you respond sets the foundation for your child's resilience, emotional regulation, and sense of self.

This ultimate parenting manual will help you redefine what parenting kids ages one to five looks like by turning daily struggles into opportunities for learning and growth. Inside you'll find bite-sized chapters packed with actionable advice, toddler tips, red flags, and easy-to-use scripts to respond effectively to everyday shenanigans allowing you to flip straight to what you need, when you need it.

  • The answers to 27 of the most common toddler challenges from screentime to parental preference to sibling conflict to teeth brushing battles this book covers it all.
