Is he doing this for attention or because he is upset?
If heās upset I would go big little feeling and acknowledge how heās feeling (youāre really upset that weāre all done with the tablet), set the boundary (I canāt let you hurt our toys so Iām going to put this way) and then redirect (letās sit here on the couch together and take deep breaths until we feel better)
Calm and no reaction to encourage the behavior

I think the major goal is to prevent tantrums as much as possible. Knowing what can set them off and taking action well ahead of a tantrum. Give choices, make them feel useful, set expectations and follow through, give warnings for transitions, when theyre beginning to get upset try to mitigate w big little feelings advice

I had this situation where my kid was so worked up the only thing I could think to do was offer him a big hug. He just melted into my arms, once he was calm we talked about his choices and he course corrected and changed his behavior. Itās worked well on numerous occasions, just an option to consider if it makes sense in that situation. Heās much better and handling his emotions now it will get better.
