Sleep Tight

Imagine this scenario, you're out to eat when all of a sudden, you notice that your child has fallen asleep on your shoulder. What do you do? Well, this guy definitely figured it out. Just cover up that kid with a napkin and keep on chowing down. This way both you and your child stay stain-free throughout the meal, and they finally get some shut-eye.

The More You Know

Hollow out a watermelon, slice off the top, and pierce the side with a spigot. Then, fill the "keg" with your favorite punch and replace the lid to keep the drinks—and the conversation—flowing.
Organize each matching sheet set by folding everything and storing it inside one of the pillowcases.
To keep small cords organized, try this handy hint: Fill a shoe box with as many empty toilet paper rolls that will fit vertically; then place a single small cord in each tube. It'll keep your cords free of tangles and in one place.
