If you've got (or have ever had) a child aged over one and under four please take a minute to fill in our survey about toddlers

Everyone who fills in the survey will be entered into a prize draw to win a stack of fab Bloomsbury books. You'll also automatically be entered into this week's comps (which include amongst other things a fab holiday to Cornwall courtesy of our new partner Baby-friendly Boltholes or an LCD widescreen TV with built in DVD, courtesy of Morrisons).

If your children are now older, and you can still remember what they were like as toddlers, you are still eligible to complete the survey. If you have more than one child you can fill the survey in more than once (and have more chance of winning )

Here's the link again

Good Luck!

LOL stealth! They are funny sometimes aren't they?

Buda - classic quote from DD(2.3)

DD: inconsolable waiing
Me: "Stop that noise please DD"
DD:
"s'not noise, Mummy, my crying"

I do still lol at remembering DS once when he was about 2. Had a tantrum about something and threw himself on the wooden floor and hurt himself. Next tantrum he carefully laid himself down on the floor and then started to tantrum. All I could do was laugh!

IdrisTheDragon · 09/01/2009 16:33

I ticked every source of tantrums as well I think.

CatIsSleepy · 09/01/2009 16:22

blimey, i had tow own up to all my bad parenting

that was a bit harrowing

Amapoleon · 09/01/2009 15:37

me neither!

AmIOdetteOrOdile · 09/01/2009 13:46

you and me both

Buda · 09/01/2009 13:43

Anything! I never win anything.

AmIOdetteOrOdile · 09/01/2009 13:40

Don't be greedy - surely we can share them (and make it an Irish clean sweep?? ) I fancy the weekend break (although I don't know whether I fancy sharinf a bedroom wih the 3 DSs....) What would you like?

Buda · 09/01/2009 13:33

Hi Waynetta! You don't need to incentivise anyone one as I am going to win!!!!

AmIOdetteOrOdile · 09/01/2009 13:21

..hit Post too soon. Meant to finish that with:
Who at MNHQ do I need to incentivise to ensure I win?

AmIOdetteOrOdile · 09/01/2009 13:19

Yet another one who feels crap for ticking so many boxes!!! Ah well, at least we're honest.

Now, what are the chances of me winning???

Buda · 09/01/2009 13:02

I can't click on the answers for some reason.

Wish I'd been able to add a note at the end, because DD is only just one so a lot of it doesn't really apply. I must look delusional (but I wanted the prize!).

CharleeinChains · 09/01/2009 10:37

I filled it in........... not that i will win i have only been here 4+ years and never won anything.......... but whatever.

Pinkjenny · 09/01/2009 09:22

Lord this survey depressed me. I think I ticked every cause of tantrum too! And that she has one most days, er, make that every day, at least every hour!

TheNewYearNewMadHouse · 09/01/2009 08:06

I dont bribe - I now incentivise - pmsl

samsonara · 09/01/2009 07:33

Perhaps the survey should have included more months eg 12 months, 18, months 36 months, as I had to put 24months for the "terrible twos" behaviour but really it started around before 18 months for my 2y old, maybe she got a head start from observing her sister who didn't start tantrums till 2 ish!

ninedragons · 09/01/2009 02:34

Can we foreigners enter if we have a loved one in the UK who would enjoy the prize?

treedelivery · 09/01/2009 01:05

39 weeks on Monday and facing up to my responsibilities as a soon to be bf mum [i.e. not fitting into my bra's]

All good!! Hello to you and your cute fella!!

thumbwitch · 09/01/2009 00:50

swings and roundabouts, treedelivery - how are you getting on, nearly there?

treedelivery · 09/01/2009 00:48

I'm soooo sorry about this but dd age 4 has never really had a tantrum.

She does however only really enjoy eating macdonalds and pringles so serves me right!

thumbwitch · 09/01/2009 00:35

Done it - some of those are so funny, does anyone have a child who never has a tantrum or never has a problem eating etc.?

whomovedmychocolate · 08/01/2009 23:23

Me too! Carrie @ MN - are you planning to share with us the results of this - we need a larf!?
