Parents of teething babies know how hard it is to give them some relief. There is very little you can do, and their pain is extremely hard to bear. One father from Queens, New York, came up with this helpful hack. Whenever he was taking his teething baby out for the day, he would keep the baby’s teether in a Klean Kanteen full of ice water.
This kept the teether cool all day and ready to offer relief when needed.
Quick Cool Down
Kids don’t like putting on seat belts on their best days, but if it’s really hot out and the metal is scorching, then they are definitely not going to cooperate.
Keep a water spray bottle around and use it to cool down the seat belt buckles.
Magic Fairy Money
You can make the tooth fairy seem more real and the money she leaves more special by adding just a bit of sparkle.
Use glitter hairspray to give the bills a little extra shine. Don’t use too much, just enough to make losing teeth a little more fun.
Building Words
Teaching your kids new things in a fun way is an amazing experience for you and them. If they have outgrown their basic blocks, repurpose them into spelling blocks.
Simply write words on the bigger pieces and letters on the smaller pieces. Kids will enjoy putting them together and learn how to read and spell new words in an enjoyable way.
Kid Compartments
Long car trips with small children can be torturous, especially when they start getting into each other’s space. These parents decided to divide and conquer by creating kid compartments in the back seat.
The kids won’t be able to bother each other and hopefully will fall asleep as soon as you hit the road.
