Did your toddler just bump or fall on the floor?
He will certainly start crying very hard...
After that, it will be difficult to calm him down for long minutes.
Fortunately, here's the mum's trick to prevent him from crying:
Baby is on the verge of tears because he just bumped or fell on the floor?
He will surely look around for help and see how you react.
If you look at him with a devastated look, he will panic and start crying hysterically.
Instead, catch his eye and smile :-).
When you smile at her, you show her that everything is going to be okay. Seeing you serene and smiling, baby is reassured.
He instantly calms down with your smile.
Of course, that doesn't exempt you from checking it for serious dents. But don't forget to smile while you do it.
