Organised mums swear by ‘school uniform stations’ to calm the morning rush – and they’re making them already
GETTING your kids ready for school in the mornings can be chaotic – but mums are sharing how unifom stations are the ultimate time-saving solution.
A clever mum shared how she was planning to get a five-drawer set so she can put her kids’ uniforms for each day of the week in separate drawers.
She wrote on Facebook: “I’m trying to get uniform organised for September (my twins start in reception).
“I’m looking to pinch that hack where you put each day’s uniform in a separate drawer at the beginning of the week.”
The savvy mum then asked if people had seen any five-drawer storage sets – either solid or fabric – available at a reasonable price.
Many mums were quick to say they also do the same, and it has been a game-changer in their homes.
One wrote: “I do exactly the same as you! Makes life so much easier doesn't it?”
Another shared a photo of their plastic five-drawer unit they use for uniforms, with a different colour used for each day.
Others said they had turned to eBay or Home Bargains for their own drawer sets.
One mum shared how she doesn’t use storage, but lays everything out the night before, and that does the trick.
And another parent pointed out: “I’ve never needed 5 sets of uniform in the 10 years of schooling with my 3.”
Meanwhile one said: “I have 5 kids, I buy them one of each and wash everyday.”
We previously shared how a mum saves time by putting her daughters to bed in tomorrow’s clothes and insists it’s a morning lifesaver.
Now that Prime Minister Boris Johnson has said all kids will be required back in school in September – now could be the time for parents to plan for reducing the morning school rush in their homes.
We revealed how a mum invented a brilliant tip to keep kids quiet by telling them they need to lie still to ‘charge’ their glow-in-the-dark pyjamas.
And this little boy was moved to tears after his classmates donated toys to him after he lost everything in a house fire.
While this mum flogs her kids’ toys on eBay to fund her hobbies and crafts.
