What's a Mommy Magic Kit?
It's like a First-Aid Kit, only instead of (well, in addition to) patching up bumps and bruises, this kit has you covered for most of the chaos that ensues on any given day in the life of a mom. Most importantly, it's small enough to toss in a purse or diaper bag, so you're always "armed."What's in it?
The MMK is still a WIP (work in progress), but here's what I came up with as the foundation:
Shown here:
- Wipes for messes
- Stain removing pen for food messes
- Hand sanitizer because . . . duh!
- Sewing kit for wardrobe malfunctions
- Nail clippers for hangnails and other grooming problems
- Snacks such as dried fruit for low blood sugar grumpiness (from kids or Mom!)
- Treats such as hard candy for incentives
- Band-Aids for boo boos (okay, not so much shown as sitting right behind me! Agh!)
- Comb or brush & backup hair ties for those rushed mornings
- Carrying case to keep it all together, just like you will ;)
Other ideas not shown here:
- Tissues for dry messes
- Cash for emergency fast food without the guilt (well, at least the credit card kind)
- Extra safety pins because they're awesome
- Spare diapers
- Plastic grocery bag for dirty diapers or clothes
Who doesn't want to be prepared for any situation? Well, guess what--you can be, because in honor of our relaunch, we're giving away a Mommy Magic Kit!
The prize package includes everything you see above (plus 20 Band-Aids), except I've only included the hard candy I could fit in the bag.
