How to teach a toddler not to become stubborn?

Be clear and consistent, set a limit and be firm make sure he/she can follow. Do allow he/she to run and play as toddles like to keep moving. Make sure he/she gets plenty of physical activity and time to explore every day – especially outdoors. Unless they're sleeping, toddlers shouldn't be inactive for more than an hour at a time. Being active does more than help your toddler improve muscle control, balance, and coordination. When you play games with he/her where you each take turns, such as kicking a ball back and forth, he/she'll get practice exercising self-control. As she masters a new physical skill, she'll also gain self-confidence. And the more confident she is, the more well-behaved she's likely to be.
