When babies get a bit older and start walking and talking, it’s really nice to see as a parent. However it also brings new challenges (keeping track of them for one).
The nice thing is that all parents go through the same trials and tantrums, even public figures such as authors and actors.
In fact, some have a few words of wisdom on what it’s like looking after a toddler. Check out our favourite quotes below...
“Having a two-year-old is like having a blender without a lid” – Jerry Seinfeld
We're not sure whether the
Seinfeld creator meant in relation to noise or mess but he was spot on.

“Toddlers are germ-warfare machines in a cute package” – Debora Geary
If there's a cold or flu going around, they are guaranteed to get it (at least once) and we are guaranteed to take care of any coughs and sniffles.
“You can learn many things from children. How much patience you have, for instance” – Franklin P. Jones
Patience is one of the cornerstones of parenthood and you never really realise just how accommodating you can be until you are one.

“(Kids) don’t remember what you try to teach them. They remember what you are.” – Jim Henson
So that will be a tired-looking coffee addict then! Only joking, we love the sentiment of this quote.
“When kids hit one year old, it’s like hanging out with a miniature drunk. You have to hold onto them. They bump into things. They laugh and cry. They urinate. They vomit” – Johnny Depp
Never a truer word was spoken by the actor.

“Anyone who thinks the art of conversation is dead ought to tell a child to go to bed” – Robert Gallagher
We're guessing the author, like the rest of us, has had more than a few sleepless nights with little ones who just don't want to sleep.

You could apply to this to a child of any age and it couldn't be more true.
