Affordable Wine Options To Get You Through The Witching Hour

If you find yourself with a child having a total tantrum that seemingly won’t end, it’s best to step away from the situation. Put your child someplace safe – this will vary depending on their age (it could be in the Snoo, it could be with a partner…) – and go somewhere where, ideally, you can’t hear the screaming. Take a few deep breaths, scream into a pillow, close your eyes…do whatever you need to do to regain your composure for a minute. Then, head to the kitchen and have a few sips of wine. This whole thing can be done in two minutes.

Don’t feel guilty!

Your child is safe, you’re not guzzling a bottle, you’re not even drinking a glass, you’re just taking a few moments to get your bearings. You’ll likely find this will help wrap the tantrum up a lot more swiftly. Children pick up on energy and that energy is sure to be better by indulging yourself, even if only for two minutes.

There’s no need to spend a lot of money to get a great wine, there are wonderful budget buys for that afternoon witching hour. Here’s a look at a few.
