As a parent, chances are you�re spending a lot of time in your car. Whether it�s dropping your child off at school or running (the ever-lasting list of) errands, nothing beats the behind the wheel blues better than a podcast. Podcasts can be a great way to offer some time to recharge or take the pressure off by entertaining your child and give you something to bond over. From parenting tips and tricks to podcasts that you and your child can both enjoy, here are five podcasts that
every parent should subscribe to:
1) �Unruffled� by Janet Lansbury
. �Janet Lansbury is a parenting expert and the author of two books on babies and toddlers, and her soothing, reassuring advice makes you feel as if you really can be a calm, confident parent even in the face of toddler meltdowns and defiance. Lansbury�s approach focuses on respect for the child and acceptance of her emotions and development but allows for firm parental limits as needed. Unruffled offers extremely practical and specific advice for common parenting situations.� -The Washington Post
