A. Understand what the behavior actually is. ...Don't take it personally. ...Show what he can or cannot throw. ...Discourage destructive throwing. ...Allow them to respond emotionally. ...Acknowledge their emotions. ...Teach them to communicate better. ...Be extra patient.Throwing things is a new and enjoyable skill for many children between 18 months and three years of age . It takes well-developed fine motor skills to open your fingers and let go of an object, and considerable hand-eye coordination to actually throw it. No wonder your toddler wants to practise this exciting skill!Babies start throwing things on the floor at around 12 months of age. This is when they are just beginning to develop a sense of object permanence which means that they understand that an object continues to exist even if it cannot be seen.
