The most helpful advice, tips, and hacks shared! Let's pool all our collective wisdom as parents in one place. What are your tried-and-true secrets for making parenting a little easier, more fun, or less stressful?
I'll start: One of my go-to tricks is keeping a 'busy bin' filled with new, intriguing toys that I rotate out every few weeks. When I need some uninterrupted time to prep dinner or just catch my breath, I can rely on this bin to keep the kids entertained. Each toy is only brought out when everything else has lost its allure, so it always feels novel and exciting. This trick buys me precious me-time while keeping the kids engaged and happy! Can't wait to hear everyone's tips!
