My daughter from the age of 1 has the habit of throwing things down when she us angry or upset or if things doesn't happen in her way. Its continuing till now, she is 28 months. I tried correcting her, ignoring the throw and many this but it's not helping at all how do I deal it?

If a 2 years and 10 months old shows disinterest in writing ABCD or anything what should we do?
Earlier when she used to go to Aanganwadi (since we are living in hills and here there are no playschools) she used to write a bit but after lockdown the writing practice left behind totally. She is very verbal and everything but only writing is troubling us. And she has been very much into mobile phone also because of which I think she has lost the interest in doing anything practically though she dances and jumpes watching cartoons..

Just like adults, all kids are individuals and learn in their own unique ways. Some kids are visual learners, while others are auditory or kinesthetic learners. Because smells trigger memories and emotion, it’s possible that kids can make associations and learn through the sense of smell as well. Since learning works in conjunction with our senses, it makes sense that learning activities should appeal to a student’s individual learning style.
Effective multisensory writing activities;help children learn to write in a variety of ways that doesn’t involve merely picking up a pencil, even if that is the end goal. Instead, these activities will stimulate a child’s learning by teaching to multiple senses at once. Multisensory techniques stimulate learning and memory, and are great for all kids, including struggling readers, or those with learning difficulties and delays.;
Use Writing Trays;
Writing trays are an awesome way to stimulate the senses and encourage early handwriting skills and proper letter formation. Find a disposable, shallow baking tray and fill it with any textured material you have on hand.
You can use dry rice, cornstarch, sugar, sand, salt, or cornmeal. Feel free to use gel food coloring to add a little extra fun for your child! Print out letter formation cards or worksheets that your child will follow when making the letters in the tray. Instruct him or her to form each letter using a finger or the eraser end of a pencil. Use separate trays and fill them with different textures for specific letters for enhanced sensory learning!;
Ziploc Sensory Writing Bags
This fun multisensory writing activity combines sight and tactile learning, much like the idea above, but in an exciting new way! Fill a quart-sized freezer bag with colored hair gel, or add food coloring to clear hair gel in the bag. To jazz it up, add glitter to the bag to make it sparkle and shine!; Zip the bag up tight and lay flat across a table, evenly distributing the gel. Using a finger or a Q-tip, encourage your child to trace letters on the bag using the correct writing strokes for each letter.;
Add Smells and Textures to Paint or Glue
Get out the art supplies, things are about to get messy! This activity combines visual and tactile methods, while adding a little smell into the mix! Using construction paper, first have your child use paint and paintbrushes to form letters. While the paint is still wet, help your child sprinkle something smelly
