Toddler tantrums have taken over our mornings

Mornings used to be a pretty chill time for our family, but lately my toddler has been throwing full-on tantrums every single morning. It's like clockwork — when it’s time to get dressed or eat breakfast, the screams and tears start. I’ve tried staying calm, offering choices like picking out clothes or snacks, and even playing soft music to ease the mood, but nothing seems to cut through the frustration. Some days I feel like I’m gearing up for a battle instead of a new day. It’s exhausting and honestly kind of heartbreaking to see my little one so upset right as the day begins. I’m wondering if this is just a phase or if there’s something else I should be trying. Have you been through this with your kids? What helped you get through those tough morning moments without losing your cool? Any tips on making mornings smoother would be a lifesaver right now.
