We all know it is called the terrible twos because toddlers are trying to find independence and test you. They have many tantrums for all kinds of things. At the time they are very frustrating, but looking back some of the tantrums were for very funny reasons. My friend Brittney and I are constantly texting each other with reasons why our toddlers have had a tantrum and decided to make a list of the ones we thought were funny.
Threw a tantrum because...
I poured chips into a container but he only wanted to eat them out of the bag.
I would not allow him to drink day old milk
the roomba went off
daddy went to work
the channel was changed when he was watching Mickey
Dada wouldn’t let him go wake Mama in the morning
Dada was in the bathroom and Mama wouldn’t help him get in
he didn’t want to sit in the high chair anymore, but turned into a tantrum because he didn’t want the high chair to be packed away either.
Mama put the batteries in his hearing aids in the morning
Mama finished her coffee and didn’t want more, no matter how much he persisted.
he wanted to take a bath in the middle of the day
he wanted the green cup not the blue cup the milk was already in
Mama threw his diaper away in the diaper genie
Dada went to pick up dinner and he thought Dada was playing downstairs without him
Mama wouldn’t let him poke her in the eye
He wanted to use the skimmer to clean the pool but the pole is way bigger than he is.
grandma and mama wouldn’t let him walk down (or fall down) a hill while they were hiking
grandma and mama wouldn’t let him sit at the picnic table and wanted to go on the hiking trail since that was the reason we went to the park
mama took away the book that he ripped yet again
mama changed his diaper.
Dada changed his diaper, but he wanted mama to do so.
The pop tart box was empty and in the recycling bin and maybe he wanted a pop tart
Daddy combed my hair
Mommy wanted me to take a bath
Daddy won’t play with me.
Didn’t want to go in his carseat and leave grandma’s house
Daddy won’t let me play with the beach towels in the house
Mama wouldn’t let me play with the electrical outlet at the Audiologist’s office
Mommy and Daddy won’t allow me to sit in my high chair all day long
We lost power in the middle of his TV show
