Start in the car. When you pick her up have on soothing music. Doesn't have to be nap time music but nothing loud and up beat. Talk quietly. Walking feet inside, please. Be consistent. Keep the rules of daycare at home as well-- because most rules the daycare has are to ensure safety, Why not make her life easier and have the same set of rules anywhere she goes? No yelling inside, no running, no jumping on the couch etcetera. As soon as you get home, have her sit down at the table and color while you make her a snack. Let her eat snack, all the while re iterating the quiet voice, the no running etcetera. Then after snack you could read stories, or get her to play quietly with a few toys in your sight. OR you could take her OUTSIDE! Or to a park, or for a walk around the neighborhood. This lets her get her wiggles out, yell and be a two year old. Its also exercise and fresh air for you! Make it a family thing. Everyone goes for a walk/bike ride before or after dinner. You don't have to do this every day. You could alternate between park/walk days and quiet activity days. I understand that sometimes you come home from work and you just DO NOT have the energy to chase a two year old around. Thats when you declare that day quiet time day. Lol GOOD LUCK!

That's tough because kids tend to get very wound up at daycare. Your best bet is to be consistent and to try to get her into a routine. Perhaps you could designate the time when you get home as a time where she (and you) engage in a quiet activity. Maybe you could read her a book. Maybe you could color or fingerpaint or do some other activity that requires sitting down and paying attention to what you do. You could try TV but most kids that age have a short attention span and most of what you see on TV these days is garbage. The only alternative there would be if you had some children's videos that she likes and would sit and watch (you know, like Sesame Street or Veggie Tales or something like that). I wish you luck...

I've experienced this. It's because the rules change. She's been at daycare and had to be really good and she feels like freedom at home. You might want to drop in unexpected on your daycare and see what is going on just incase she's being too restricted there. Alot of times when kids come out of a very restricted environment back into their homes, they are letting out all of their pent up energy that they were not allowed to display there. I would make sure nothing like that is going on. Also, when my kids go to their dad's house it is very srict there so when they come home they are the same way - acting wild, breaking all of my rules because they know they can get by with it easier- if something is going on that is why she is so wild when she gets home - she's free!- remember when you would jump around as a kid just because you were so happy & excited about something? - Kinda like that - If nothing is going on there then it could just be that she's really happy to be home

i might extremely tell her scientific professional and take her to a professional. they could even want to look right into a seizure disease. some varieties of seizures have effects that appear as if the guy is hallucinating. they actually are not consciously responsive to what they're doing and don't remember it. i does no longer overlook approximately it any further, this is extremely no longer a point. i'm hoping each thing seems nicely. additionally, i might ask the daycare in the event that they have observed something out of the traditional. enable them to appreciate whats occurring.

Play with her, read a story, watch a tv show on the couch with her in your lap, tickle her, etc. More than likely, she's so excited because she's missed you all day and is happy to see you.

She is excited to see you and be home where it is safe and she knows. I wouldn't want her to calm down.
