2. Choose Your Timing Wisely
Never, ever go to the store right before you’re child’s nap time or bed time. This will ensure a definite melt down. Always head to the store when your child is rested and happy. They won’t get as restless and they will last longer. You can also be strategic about when to go to the store if you want to wear your child out. Take them to the park beforehand and let them get all their wiggles and energy out so that when you go shopping they won’t have any more energy to wiggle in the cart or the stroller.
