Naptime DIY: Garage Pegboard and Storage

At one point our garage was organized and could accommodate two cars.  Then we had one child, one car got moved outside and when that child became a toddler the garage was dangerously disorganized.  There were all sorts of tools that a curious toddler could maul, hurt or break something with-all at a level that he could easily reach.  Continue reading Naptime DIY: Garage Pegboard and Storage

The Brother P-Touch Label Maker durability garage test

In August I announced that Daddy Mojo was participating in the Brother P-Touch Ambassador Program.    It was my submission that my garage was where good tools go to die or at least get lost amongst all the clutter.  Between all the bikes, children’s toys, shop vac, bicycles and strollers we had to fit a car and have a toddler walk through there without tripping or being attracted to anything sharp or dangerous.  Continue reading The Brother P-Touch Label Maker durability garage test

When my wife and I moved into our house it came with an extensive outdoor lighting set up.  In the front yard alone there are 20 lights.  In the back yard there are about 20 more, all of the lights are metal and the entire system runs on three transformers.  We live on a normal sized lot, mind you, it’s just a very well lit lot.  Continue reading DIY a stay-at-home dad can do: fix outdoor lighting

As a stay-at-home dad who does the shopping, cooking and cleaning; I want to do whatever I can to make my time and family budget work as efficiently as possible.     A couple months ago I started using a new product from Scrubbing Bubbles that is supposed to all but eliminate the need for a toilet brush.   The manufacturer didn’t ask me to write this up.  Occasionally, I’ll write reviews on products that may or may not be helpful to busy households.  Continue reading Dad tries One Step Toilet Bowl Cleaner by Scrubbing Bubbles

Daddy Mojo reviews: Febreeze Set & Refresh

In a kitchen drawer we have several air fresheners that you plug into an electrical outlet.  We also have a couple of the free standing ones that look like a white 4” traffic cone.   The ones that required an outlet were too obvious or obstructed the outlet; while the free standing ones lost their scent and needed to be thrown away, oops. Continue reading Daddy Mojo reviews: Febreeze Set & Refresh
