I thought I would start a thread for underrated things.
My first item: blackout curtains.
We bought a set of these back around March and put them in our bedroom which features an east-facing window. Instead of having the sun blasting through the cracks of our blinds by around 5:30 AM, it remains nice and dark through the morning. We also bought a set for our daughter's room that doesn't black things out as much. My daughter no longer wakes up at the crack of dawn. It's not uncommon for our two year old to not wake up until around 8:00 AM or later, before she was rising with the sun. Of course waking up so late makes naps a little more iffy, but she still usually goes down.
