Take it Easy
It is not easy but it can be done. Do understand that yelling is not the solution to everything and all you need to do is to take a chill pill and deal with the problem just like any other situation. It is best to take a moment before reacting since acting out when angry can be over the top. -
2
It’s not Personal
Do not take the matter personally. They are your kids and they will do all kinds of crazy things not because of any personal issues. So do not take it personally and make sure that you let go of things when you need to. Being angry and yelling in an attempt to settling a score is not the brightest of ideas. -

Kids are Kids
It is the nature of the kids to have loads of energy and to do all kinds of things to get it out. They are simply not doing this to be annoying, well more often than not and just following their natural instincts. Everyone has done similar crazy stuff when they were kids and adults should be better able to relate to that due to their own experience. -

Slow Down
There is no need to tackle the whole thing in one breath. Take it easy and analyse the whole situation before acting. Make sure that you remain calm and in control of things. You do not want the kids to know that you are losing control. Drink a glass of water if you feel like your blood pressure is shooting up as this should help you. -

Calm Down in General
Stay calm in general and ease your nerves. There are no points for remaining angry and it harms your health as well. If you are not edgy and nervy, you can be in control during all kinds of situations.
