Many parents shared their top tips for making parenting easier. Suggestions included using shower curtains under high chairs for messy eaters, having stocked emergency stashes in cars, using self-standing mesh bags for messy foods, and mopping floors with reusable cloths for environmental friendliness and ease. $2 plastic mats from Daiso are great for catching crumbs and mess, and oversize t-shirts can be used as a mat for babies to sit on. Busy bags packed with toys and activities are ideal for keeping children entertained when out and about, and portable speakers in the bathroom can make cleaning up more fun. Multi-use items like hoodies are handy for breastfeeding, covering messy hair and sunshading. For tantrums, threatening toy donations works well, and for juice spills, toothpaste is effective followed by regular washing. Some parents also recommend baby powder to clean sticky substances from various surfaces. These tips and tricks can help make parenting less stressful!
