Many parents are worried about their sons being teased for playing with “girls’ toys”, while fewer parents express concerns their little girl would be judged for playing with “boys’ toys”, according to research. Gendered toys may have negative effects on children’s development by limiting their interests and perpetuating outdated stereotypes. It’s important to provide children with a diverse range of toys and play experiences to help them develop their skills and understanding of the world, without imposing gender stereotypes on them.
Kids can make your life more complicated but, at the same time, more adventurous. They can get stuck in a toilet seat, cut up your money, or even paint a dog. As frustrating as these scenarios may be, try to take them in with a sense of humor.
Some of the best hobbies out there make tedious activities more exciting: like extreme ironing!

Soda bottles are always filled in such a way that there’s some space between the liquid level and the cap. That’s because these drinks contain carbon dioxide. This gas can expand if the bottle gets heated. If there’s no air gap in the bottle, it’ll break because of the pressure building inside. Also, when you open your drink, the gasses go out in the form of bubbles. And the drink is likely to overflow. The gap helps with this problem too. (Except if you shake it up first, then open it. No, I’ve never done that.)
Hotel star ratings aren’t always reliable as the rating systems vary between countries. In Italy, for example, a hotel can be given 5 stars just for having a 24-hour reception desk, receptionists that speak 3 languages. Instead of using stars, look at ratings or reviews instead. Booking late can also get you the best deals. If your stay is not urgent, try booking a room on the day of the stay. If the hotel isn’t full, you’ll likely get a discount. Hotel managers reduce room rates last minute to fill them.
