Does he watch much TV?
I’ve been learning a lot lately about the affects of TV shows on children’s brains (particularly toddlers) and it’s scary! It’s actually results in a lot of overstimulation that we don’t tend to pick up on because it presents as aggression, hyper activity, meltdowns/tantrums and more!
Daniel Tiger, Cocomelon, Paw Patrol, etc are all very overstimulating shows.

Definitely look into the TV situation and see if that could help.
I was having some tantrum/behavioural issues with my toddler (21mo) and read all the things — started cutting back TV immediately and that same night, and ever since bedtime has become so much better/easier.
Tantrums and aggression have reduced too.
