Something you will do for your kids you wish your parent did for you when you were in school? Make life easier! Share your ideas with others!

I’m gonna buy poster boards/supplies for it in bulk so when my child tells me they have a project in the middle of the night I don’t gotta be mad about going to the store in the middle of cooking or something and can just whip a poster board out the closet lol! Cuz we all know every kid does it.

What things has your 13/14 month old picked up on or you taught them?

My son has figured out to throw trash in the trash can, like if he’s finished a pouch he’ll throw it away. He’ll also put his cup on the table sometimes he’ll just drop it on the floor.
