Some of these are HORRENDOUS ideas. Downright dangerous. Just sayin.............
I thinlk the bathtub as a playpen is a terrible idea, the child could turn on the water and drown or the hot water on and be scalded.
some of these aren't safe to do. I'm a teenager with a baby sister and I've learned some "Parenting Hacks" along the way. All I'm saying is that there are safer ways to entertain your kid(s). You just have to teach your kid(s) that no means no and to listen to their parents on most of these.
I don't mean to offend any parents with this. Some of the Hacks looked really helpful and I would like to try them too. Load More Replies...
