Several parents shared their tips on making parenting easier in a discussion thread. The suggestions included keeping the kids entertained by turning toy-fighting into games, using cheap treats as incentives, and putting on kid-friendly music for some fun exercise. Getting children involved in meal planning and cooking was also recommended, which makes dinnertime smoother and encourages family bonding. To simplify mealtimes further, some parents advocate for keeping a pantry stocked with easy-prep meals. Meanwhile, others suggested teaching kids about food by letting them choose and prepare ingredients to develop their creativity and imagination. Some unique food combinations might emerge from this, like mixing rice with ice cream or dipping fries into milkshakes! Lastly, having a well-stocked bag of cheap entertainment toys and games can help parents catch a much-needed breather while keeping kids occupied.
