Take away whats important to her,at her age she will have a favourite toy dvd etc .If she is really in to one then room it! Close door for 4 mins [her age] then go in and try to calm her down
It depends how early you catch the tantrum on what works best ,what is important is that she is punished in some way cause she will understand more at her age and will realise eventually you will not tolerate it,you feel like a big meanie sometimes but it has to be done!
If i feel my dd is starting i use the "im gonna count to 5" threat and sometimes that ,alone works but you have to follow through
Hope this helps!

Even if its only for 5-10 mins. She apologises and tries her best to avoid going to bed..(except bed-time when she asks) And very rarely has to go to bed. Just a suggestion since it has worked with my Lo....
