Big Little Feelings offers tips to be a better parent to tantrum-throwing toddlers

• The two are the founders of the mega-popular parenting platform, Big Little Feelings, which offers online courses for parents of kids ages 1 to 6 and has gained more than 3 million Instagram followers.

Why it matters: Raising toddlers is one of the toughest jobs there is, and caretakers could use all the help they can get.

• More than 27 million parents in the U.S. have kids younger than 6, the latest U.S. Census Bureau data shows.

What they're saying: "Your toddler's tantrums say nothing about you as a parent, and it doesn't mean your kid is a bad kid," Gallant says in the show's first two-minute episode, "Let's Talk Tantrums," which debuted in late December.

• They're actually a "natural" part of brain development, so "the best thing you can do is just let your child have that release" and validate their feelings — no matter how ridiculous they may seem.

What's next: The show's second episode, airing Saturday, is full of even more tantrum-taming tips to help empower parents with useful new strategies.

How to watch: Viewers can tune into the weekly Saturday series over-the-air on channel 12; Comcast channel 660 in Denver and Northern Colorado or 712 in Colorado Springs and Pueblo; on Hulu LiveTV; or stream online at PBS12.org.
