Soothe Sibling Rivalry
A new baby in the house can stir all kinds of emotions, including jealousy felt by older brothers or sisters. Toddlers in particular may react by misbehaving, acting younger than they are or vying for your attention more than usual.

Now Hear This!
Listening skills are vital to your child’s education, verbal communication and interpersonal relationships. He’ll start learning to listen as young as two when you practice and encourage these good habits: Get down on his level and make eye contact while talking. Don’t interrupt unless there’s a question. Divide listening and talking roles. Pay attention to what he says and respond with a nod or a comment. Ask him to repeat what you’ve talked about and compliment him for being a good listener.

Toddlers Can Make a Difference Too
t’s never too early to teach environmentally friendly habits. Even if your toddler doesn’t yet understand how his actions impact the earth, he can do his part by learning to put items in the recycle bin, turn off the light when he leaves a room, turn off the water while brushing his teeth and use both sides of the paper when drawing or writing. Make it fun for him to conserve by creating games, giving him little rewards and including him in projects such as a tree planting or a backyard garden.
