7 Real Mums and Their Best Mum Hacks Revealed

Get to know these amazing mums as they share with Bright Star Kids their best mum hacks that make mum life such a breeze. Because you can be a mum, be great at it, and look awesome, too!

1. Ashleigh, mum of 4

Ashleigh, a 29-year-old Content Creator from Queensland, Australia, is a proud mum to 4 beautiful Lebanese-Aboriginal babies named Zahli 8, Lamar 6, Tyriq 4, and Jakai 2. 

Get to know more about Ashleigh on Instagram.

Her most-used mum hacks:

• I always make the kids’ school lunches the night before. It’s a serious game-changer. 

• I always carry sunscreen, hand sanitiser, and baby wipes in the car, because you just never know when you will need them. 

• Home-made Play-Doh is where it’s at. No nasties, and it’s so quick and easy to make.

• Breakfast for dinner. During the week, things can get a little chaotic, so sometimes, when I don’t feel like cooking, we will have bacon and eggs and the kids love it! 

• I always pre-chop up fruit and have it accessible to the kids in the fridge for when they want a quick snack. 

• Everything we have to do or attend is on a planner each week on the fridge. 

• We have a separate drawer for kids’ cutlery, so they can help with getting things ready for dinner. 

• We try and get the kids’ stuff ready the night before, so it’s all ready for them to get dressed in the mornings. 

• Sometimes, I wake up before everyone just so I can have a coffee in peace and get myself ready before everyone else gets up. 

• I always have frozen ice packs in case the kids hurt themselves.

2. Joey, mum of 4

Joey is a Sydney-based Content Creator who regularly posts about fun toy reviews and recommendations with her precious bubs. 

Follow Joey and her lovely brood of 4 on Instagram.

• Always prepare the night before.

• Love using Bright Star Kids labels, so my children always remember which is theirs 

• Personalised Bright star kids school bag especially if they just started school easier for them to recognise their property 

• Get groceries delivered, no need to drag along 4 kids doing the groceries 

• I always keep a small bag with activities in the car for the little ones to keep them busy and no screaming during car rides

3. Erinn,  mum of 1

• Sprinkle a little baby powder over your children’s skin after a day at the beach. The powder stops the sand from sticking and you will no longer find sand all through the car.

• Use Bright Star Kids easy to apply labels to all of your children’s daycare clothes and you will never lose them again. 

• When I have to go to work early in the morning, I dress my kids in their daycare clothes straight after their bath at night, then I don’t have to go through the stress of waking them to get them dressed in the morning.  

• To keep dolls’ hair knot-free, I add 1 part fabric softener to 2 parts water into a spray bottle. Spray on the dolls’ hair, comb through and allow to dry. My kids also love playing hairdressers and using this spray on their dolls. 

• The Bright Star Kids Jumbo Santa Sacks are a great way to put all of your child’s presents together ready for Christmas Morning. The added bonus is you can use it every year and you don’t have to wrap each and every present. Sustainable and a time saver! 

5. Steph, mum of 2

Meal Prep Tips For  Busy Parents

Prep your daily family meals with these Easy Meal Prep Ideas to get you through the week. It’s meal planning made easy! If you haven’t tried it, here’s why you should:

The Benefits:

• Healthier Option than grabbing fast food especially on busy days
• Fuss-free meals cooked super fast – Grab, Heat, and Go!
• Well-portioned meals = less food waste

Image Credits: Green Healthy Cooking 

How To Meal Prep?

Create a menu with meals that everyone in the family loves. Use a meal planner notepad to write down the meals you have planned each day and have a list of your easy meal prep recipes ready. Check your family’s schedule to know which days you only need to prep for. Take note of days when you’ll all be out, so there’ll be no need to have meals prepped. 

What’s Next?

Now that you have a menu plan ready, it’s time to check your kitchen and pantry for your ingredients. Create a shopping list to note all the things you need to buy for the upcoming week, or if you’re feeling extra organised, get the whole month’s supplies sorted out. This all depends on your schedule and budget, of course! When you’re done with your list, go for your groceries and market run! 

Prep Up!

Set aside half the day for prepping. Post your menu plan on your fridge and use it as a guide to see which ones you’ll need to prep first. Personalise your own pantry labels and have your containers ready and labelled. 

An organised kitchen or prep table helps to quickly grab anything you need like spices and herbs, condiments, etc. Then let the cooking fest begin. Once done, make sure everything is cooled down before you cover all containers.

Image Credits: Womans Day

Store and Label!

Choose the best reusable and freezable containers then use dry erase labels, so you can properly label each meal. Remember to put the date and if it’s cooked or just frozen. Add a name to the meal pack if it’s for someone in the family with a special diet or allergies. Store in chiller or freezer.
