LPT Have a single sink, small bathroom counter? Get a vertical tension rod shower caddy. Put it between your sink and your toilet, not on the counter itself, and you’ll double your space.

LPT To help your children practice and learn Spanish or another language, set their video games to that language. We have a Nintendo Switch at home, and my son has learned an amazing amount of vocabulary because I configured the device to Spanish, making it the default language for all games forcing them to read in Spanish.
