Survival Hacks for Right Now

Because sometimes you need help immediately.

The 5-Minute Cleanup

Set a timer for 5 minutes and have everyone (yes, even the toddler) pick up as much as they can. Works surprisingly well.

Water Bottle Trick

Keep a water bottle by your bed. When kids wake you up at night, take a sip first. It helps you wake up enough to deal with whatever crisis they're having.

Emergency Snack Stash

Hide non-perishable snacks in your car, purse, and coat pockets. You'll thank yourself during unexpected hunger meltdowns.
