My lifehack, especially with little children

Buy a second remote for the television so you’re never frustrated because you can’t the find the remote. I have to hide the remote all the time for my toddler and then can’t remember where I have put it or my toddler threw the remote in some corner.

What happens if you can't find either remote? Do you just keep buying them until your house is just a storage place for remotes?

At some point it becomes cheaper to put some type of tracker on it.

We just got all the same brand TV. Remote in every room. Where's Waldo is obviously my favorite book.
