\nβHow to Reduce E-Wasteβ
\n\"Guess what! I got my fridge fixed for free!\" This was the greeting I received Monday afternoon from a mom I always see walking her dog. Just before Christmas, she was frustrated because her 2-year-old refrigerator went out.
\nI had launched into my rant on planned obsolescence (found in the Right to Repair tip on this list) and told her to call them back because that is some major BS.
\nSo, she did. And after some runaround, they admitted to a known issue with her model and sent someone to replace the fan for free. It's now working, so she saved $2,400 and kept another huge item from contributing to the growing e-waste problem.

\nβ8 Guided Meditations for Sleepβ
\nParents always ask for the best meditation scripts to help their child fall asleep, so we created a roundup of them. They're also in the library (which we're about to update with sections to make it easier to search).
\nβ
\nβMontessori Floor Bedsβ
\nMontessori education is founded upon principles that support a childβs independence. In this article, we cover how floor beds encourage independence, why you might choose one, and how to set up the room safely. Plus we've found some absolutely adorable floor beds at all price ranges from several different retailers. You'll also find DIY tutorials.
