The phrase sounds dramatic—burnout and toddler in the same sentence? But more and more parents are noticing signs that their little ones are overstimulated, overtired, and overbooked. Just like adults, toddlers can hit a wall when their daily lives are filled with nonstop activities, transitions, and pressure to keep up. And while they may not be verbalizing stress the way older kids do, the signs are there if you know how to look. If you’ve been wondering why your toddler seems out of sorts lately, it’s time to consider the possibility that your toddler is experiencing burnout.
