They are blessings that fill our days with smiles, but let’s face it, it can be pretty tough sometimes. That’s why we found these awesome 25 parenting hacks.

Reddit user FreddyJackson69 came up with an awesome idea. Fill a glove full of beans and place it on their backs when they’re in their bed. This will make them feel like they’re getting plenty of love, while you’re busy catching some Zs.
Whatever you do, don’t throw that empty bag of soybeans away. Use it to hide all your mini Snickers bars in the fridge or freezer. Trust us, no kid in their right mind would ever go anywhere near a veggie bag, like ever.
