HAPPY TUESDAY Everyone!!! It's "Tip Day" here at According to Lala...
Another FABULOUS "tip" from my Mrs. Superorganizedmotheroffive friend... God I really admire her "forethought" and organization... her home runs like a well oiled machine...
I know none of us like it when our kiddies are under the weather... and I know many of us have been woken out of a sound sleep in the middle of the night by a sick child... or a child who has been sick in their room/bed/hallway... we stumble around half asleep trying to calm and clean up the child... clean up the mess... change sheets... change pjs... clean the floor/carpet/walls in a state somewhere between half sleep and half wake...
Introducing "THE SICK BASKET"... a "cheapie" laundry basket that holds all the "emergency" essentials you may need in case your kiddie(s) get sick in the middle of the night... change of sheets (old sheets... or 2 flat sheets that can just be tucked in quickly)... clorox wipes (for floors or walls)... paper towels (clean up)... baby wipes (kiddie clean up)... cheapie trash can (to either give to sick child in case they become sick during clean up OR to put clean up trash in)... plastic bags (I have WALLIES bags (bag yucky jammies... use for trash)... old towels (I have 3 old beach towels)... tissues... Lysol... a small can of GingerAle... a plastic sippie cup... and some crackers (my FABULOUS friend has to restock these at least once a week as her 2 year old finds them and eats them... LOL)
So... when your kiddie(s) get sick in the middle of the night all you have to do is grab the basket (I took my FABULOUS friend's advice and am now storing mine in the bottom of the linen closet) and you'll have the ESSENTIALS you need to quickly clean up!
Have a WONDERFUL Tuesay Everyone!!!
