2 Problems, 1 Solution-A Mommy of Many® Tip

September 1, 2011

Sometimes the solution to a problem is so simple that it’s hard to believe we haven’t seen it.

Here’s a solution to 2 common household problems;

Problem #1) How many hundreds of times have you picked up and dumped water bottles that have been partially enjoyed and then left sitting around?

Problem #2) Do your ice packs seems to disappear as often as the match to almost all your children’s socks?

Solution!- Fill those 1/2 full water bottles with tap water, mark an X on the top (this is how my kids know not to defrost and drink them), throw them in your freezer & BAM! No more searching for ice packs (though these are a little large for lunch boxes, if you DO choose to use them that way, I’d suggest putting them in a plastic zipper bag to keep everything else from getting wet) and no more frustration over dumping all that water!
