Oh Nic. TBH I probably would have done the same (including some yelling :/ ) I think what you did is ok, perhaps we just cut down on the yelling hehe I'm totally not for re-preparing food for a toddler, nor preparing different food for a toddler. And I don't think giving them undivided attention during a tantrum does anyone any favours either.

Sounds like he calmed himself down in his room, so I say you handled it ok but yeah, less yelling.. that goes for me too LOL - tho we don't have many tantrums.

It reminds me of a friend who's daughter was a tantrum chucker.. anyway, she had cut the sandwich in triangles instead of squares, or something stupid like that, and this set off a MASSIVE tantrum. They ended up outside yelling at each other in the garden. LOL - fancy arguing with a toddler like that! Think they were both tantruming! heheheh.
