Parent Hacks: Tricks and Tips to Make Life Easier

Let's talk Parent Hacks! 

In this episode, Ciarra and Samantha share their favorite parent hacks that have made their lives easier as parents. They discuss tips for making the baby's crib easier to clean, using a splash mat under the highchair, using a pacifier to give medicine, freezing breast milk flat, and rotating boxes of toys. They also talk about creative ideas like using animal stickers to help kids put on their shoes, creating a shirt with handprints for each grade, and having a snack bag with individual portions in the car. They share various parenting hacks and tips for making life with kids easier. Some of the hacks include having individual portioned snacks in the car, using a telescoping back scratcher to retrieve dropped toys, keeping a plastic tote or bin in the car for muddy shoes, carrying wet wipes everywhere, having a change of clothes for the entire family in the car, using a car potty for toddlers, using sticky table placemats to reduce mess, and using a fishing lure box or a spinner plate for snacks. The conversation emphasizes the importance of finding what works best for each family and not being judgmental about different parenting choices.
