Having 4 boys can get a little hectic, especially when they all have places to run to and we are in and out of the van all day. Keeping my bag stocked up with on the run needs is important to keeping my sanity. What would a mom to 4 boys keep stocked in her bag for daily errands?
Check it out:
Gum, calms me down when “things happen”, and keeps my breath fresh for that just in case moment, you know where you run into one of the kids teachers, or your husbands boss.
Tylenol, lets face it, running around all day battling kids can lead to quite a headache, Tylenol has been there for me for years!
Cell phone packed with games. My boys love their digital games, and it keeps them quiet in a pinch, like sitting and waiting to get your oil changed or tires done.
Pen & notepad, another tool that has multiple uses like the cell phone. Can be used for notes, or to keep little men happy coloring.
