SUMMARY: In today‘s Mom to Mom segment, we share helpful hacks for busy parents. One idea is to place magnets on cups, allowing kids to grab their own drinks from the fridge easily. For treating minor injuries, frozen marshmallows provide a gentler alternative to ice packs. Shower caddies from the Dollar Tree can organize snacks for movie nights or tidy up fast food in the car, preventing spills. Lastly, cut stickers in half and place them on shoes to help kids learn left from right. We encourage you to share your own hacks on our Mom to Mom page for future features!
