Parent Hacks
Parent Hacks describes a hack as a workaround, a jerry-rig, a clever, pragmatic answer to a problem. Parents are some of the best hackers, because raising kids requires on-your-feet thinking and frequent improvisation. Parent Hacks converted this clever idea into an incredibly useful website.
The website chose a weblog model to present its content. This model allows Parent Hacks to create a collaborative environment where visitors can engage with, and contribute to, its content. The content categories are relevant for all parents, and include the following topics:
- 0-01yrs (infant)
- 01-03yrs (toddler)
- 03-05yrs (preschooler)
- 05-12yrs (kid)
- 13-18yrs (teen)
- 18yrs+ (grownup)
- attitude/mindset
- fashion/general cuteness
- feeding
- fun/toys
- gear
- getting organized

Most parents will find something useful at Parent Hacks. Ideally, Parent Hacks will be a place where parents not only get advice, but also give it.
