Everyone of us is different—and so are children, even children born to the same parents. Some of us are intense, and others calm. Some are moody and others almost always cheerful. The reason is temperament, the inborn traits that influence how we deal with people and each day’s events. Children’s temperaments also determine how they progress toward developmental milestones such as walking.
This two-page downloadable:
- describes temperament traits
- helps you assess your child’s (and your own) temperament
- explains how parents’ temperaments affect parenting
