All parents know that bringing up children is a continuous challenge. Every day our kids provide us with a whale of new experiences. Hopefully, thanks to a bunch of the tricks some parents shared this everyday struggle can be made much easier.

#1 Frozen marshmallows as an alternative for an ice pack

#2 What can you do when your kid needs a toilet and there is nowhere to pull over?

Always have a potty and some diapers in your car. Just put a diaper into the potty, let your baby sit down and do the job. Then just throw away the diaper.

#3 A plastic basket as a mini bathtub

This is how you keep all the toys floating close around your child.

When the sand pit is protected by the tent, no stray cats will poo in there at night and your children will be protected against the sun on a hot day. If you want bugs to stay away, mix some cinnamon with the sand.
