Your toddler reaches for the handle of the soup pan on the stove. Instead of shouting “No!” try “Stop!” As soon as baby stops in her tracks, issue a quick follow-up – “Hurt baby.” As you firmly grab her exploring hand (thinking next time you’ll keep the handle turned in and use the back burner), look into her amazed big eyes and continue your serious look: “Hot. Hurt. Don’t touch what’s on the stove. Ouchie!” You’ve made your point without saying no. Follow up with a hug, especially if you found yourself speaking harshly. Reconnect with your child so that one incident doesn’t ruin your child’s whole day. (“Hot” is another helpful stop word, especially once your child has some personal experience with the sensation. Carefully hold her hand where she can feel the heat so she understands the connection.)
