What's your best life-changing parenting tip or shortcut?
I'll start! When my kids were little, I kept a "grab bag" filled with inexpensive toys, books and goodies in my trunk. It was an absolute savior during doctors' appointments, long lines at the DMV or any time I needed a little something to entertain them. I'd also keep a few items back and pull one out when we got to a restaurant - it helped occupy my kids while we waited for food and kept them from bugging me every two minutes about when it would arrive!
