[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How long have you been with them?

She may just be testing you.

What are the tantrums about?

Do they occur at a certain time?

Have you tried praising her when behavior is appropriate?

Have you tried curbing the behavior before it starts?

Could she benefit from an additional snack, rest period or one on one time?

Would giving her  more choices be helpful?[/quote]

I'm well aware she is testing me, she just doesn't respond to things that normally work! I'll try the question idea the other PP suggested. 
To answer your questions:
The tantrums are literally about anything and everything. If she wants something and I say no, or I ask her to do something and she doesn't want to they are triggered so they are pretty hard to curb. 
We have a snack as soon as we get home, as I know this can be a trigger. Unfortunately, she's at school all day and in after school activities so I can't influence sleeping/eating patterns. 
I give choices where appropriate but things such as wearing a coat when it is snowing aren't optional (this one is a fight most days).
