Toddlers: 12 - 24 Months

throwing things at others

Lately my 21 month old girl has been throwing things at other kids -- usually smaller kids. I think she is just playing and just throwing things to them, but she tried to throw a sippy cup at my cousin's newborn and then at open house for her school (that starts tomorrow) she threw a block at a little girl's head :( Embarrassing! She also has thrown food/crayons a couple of times at restaurants (or tried). I usually can catch her when she is about to throw, but sometimes I miss.
I've been  TRYING to teach her how to hand things to me/others instead of throwing, but she still has her moments. It's not ALL the time but it's enough -- especially enough to make me worry about her starting school -- and seems to increase lately.
Any tips??
