30. Simple fabric and hacks can help quieten noisy doors
Some babies are able to sleep through loud noises, while others can be woken up by someone breathing too loudly next door. Sounds familiar? It’s a good idea to check on your children throughout the night to ensure their safety, but it could also be enough to get them to wake up.
You can use an old facemask to make the door quieter if you are worried that it will wake them up. Attach the string to the handles of the door and pull the fabric over it. This will ensure that the catch is always pulled back. The door should now be opened and closed almost inaudibly.
