18month old discipline advice

[Noddy1990]

Hi,

I was just curious how you explain to your independent 18month old they have done something wrong.

I do the deep voice and eyes but I my voice doesn't go particularly deep. I know it's early days still I just want to ensure I'm disciplining in the most affective way for both me and my daughter.

Any positive advice welcome
Thanks

I bring myself down to DSs level, say “no” very clearly and show him what he should be doing or distract him with something else.

I never disciplined my DC's when they were that age as they are only babies. I used distraction or a gentle 'no' to let them know they can't do something - that's as far as it goes.
