Even small stresses can feel big to babies and toddlers, but your calm, loving presence can buffer that stress and help their brains grow strong. Responsive care is key: notice their cues, offer comfort, and stay close.
It’s normal for toddlers to hold on tight to “mine.” They’re still learning what it means to share, and your gentle support helps them understand over time.
