Sleep is so important for both you and your kids.  We recently asked our instagram followers something they would like to hear more about on our podcast, and sleep was the biggest answer we got.  So today we're discussing sleep schedules, nap time, and bedtime routines. If you aren't getting sleep right now because of your kids, we feel for you.  We've been there too!  Hopefully some of the research we did and our own personal experience can be of some help. 

This week’s Product That Makes Parenting Stink Less is kinetic sand. We give it 4.5 stars! Our kids have been loving it and it isn’t as messy as we thought it would be. Here’s our Amazon Affiliate link to Kinetic Sand.

Here are the links to the websites we referred to throughout the episode.
