With children, it is amazing how many napkins you can go through at meal time. I have two kids, so double how many you are thinking in your mind. Until recently, I had no idea that there were companies out there that actually make cloth napkins for children. One of these companies is Fabkins, and these are some of the cutest cloth napkins you will find on the market. They have eight different styles, and each set comes with 5 napkins. There is a set for everyone (there is everything from ballerina to sports napkins). Most moms are doing the wash either every day or every other day (or is that just my house?), so throwing a couple of extra napkins into that load is nothing. I am game for using items that help save the environment, and this is one of them. It is just an added plus that they are cute and fashionable. Most of all, the greatest thing about Fabkins is that your kids will want to use these!

I recently came across another item that falls along the lines of “why didn’t I think of that?”. The mom who came up with the Parking Pal, in my opinion, is a genius. The Parking Pal is a circular magnet with a child size hand print in the center. When you put it on your car/van/vehicle, you child puts they hand on their, and it keeps them safe while you load or unload your vehicle. Being that I don’t have a driveway and we park on the street a lot with the minivan, I love that this keeps Madison safe. I’ll be honest, when we first used it, I was completely surprised by something. Madison knew what I wanted her to do without telling her. She knew that I wanted her to stand there with her hand on the magnet while I was loading the car. I love that this is intuitive enough that she just knew what was expected. This has also been a hit with other moms. They all wanted to know where I got this from, and all thought it was a great idea. Now, the Parking Pal does come in several designs to pick from — everything from soccer balls, to fish, to flowers. There is definitely something for your kids that you can get on there. The Parking Pal will run you about $7.99. However, $8 is well worth insuring my daughter’s safety.
