However in this case, I think your situation is more about normal child development and the nature of toddlers! Usually when I see fights started by a younger toddler sibling, it’s because they are trying to play with or get the attention of their older sibling. Try to talk to your younger child about this. “You wanted your sibling to play you huh? So you pushed them? I get it. What happened though? They got mad? Yeah! That’s tough! That’s not what you wanted to happen, right? What could you do next time?You want to compassionately reinforce the idea that what they did isn’t going to get them what they were looking for.
Another related possibility is that your two-year-old doesn’t want to play with your four-year-old, they just want what their older sibling has or is playing with. Two-year-olds want what they want!
