Useful Toddlers Hacks
Make Cleaning Time As Playtime
Cleaning time would be much more fun when you get your children to join in. Make cleaning time as playtime. Recreate any games while doing the house chores with them. This way, your children can have fun and at the same time, learning the ways and importance of cleaning.
Recycle Old Phones
We always got an old phone lying around the house, somewhere! Rather than throwing that old phone, trade it as a toy for your little one to play. It should be a much better substitute than giving them smartphones at an early age.
Hairdryer As A Sticker Remover
Do you know that your hairdryer can be used to take out those nasty stickers your kid stuck on around the house? All you have to do just provide enough heat on the sticker, and then carefully take it off. Wipe the remaining marks with a wet tissue or cloth.
Bib Hook
As the name goes, bib hook is where you can hook your little one’s bib – so you wouldn’t go around looking for it during mealtime. One easier way is to stick some hooks at the back of your kid’s high chair (if you have one). Or else, you can simply stick some hooks to your kitchen wall, any which is easier for you to reach for the bib.
Hello, Coffee Filters
A coffee filter is a great alternative to hold your snacks. Instead of using a kitchen towel (aka tissue), stock up on your coffee filters in your house. It holds snack really well like kitchen towel.
Glitter Clear Up
One way to clear up those glitters from your kids’ art and craft session, is to use a lint roller. Trust me, lint roller picks up the glitter pieces effectively! Sweeping does help, but it won’t do much and will take quite some time since the glitters tend to fly around. Get a lint roller and see how it ‘evolves’ to becoming your next best friend.
