Mum's genius $2 pram hack has the Internet cheering

A mum has sent the whole Internet into a round of applause after she has shown how to use a shower cap to fix a problem most mothers deal with! 

Posting to Facebook, the mum revealed this genius hack:

1. Take 4 x shower caps (cheap ones from any supermarket will do!)

2. Before going into your home after a pram walk, apply one shower cap to each pram wheel 

3. Take the pram anywhere inside your home with NO residual mess

4. No mess, whatsoever

5. Give the woman a round of applause! 

Family days. Tried & tested.

The photo was posted to UK blog, Family Days, Tried and Tested. The idea was created to beat the inevitable onslaught of mud and rain that comes with a British winter. 

This hack saves so much more than preventing residual mess from entering the house, it also solves these problems too:

  • Rainy day skid marks on your inside floors and a soggy, messy and often muddy boot
  • Bringing in sand from the beach
  • Grass, leaves and random sticks coming in to your home
  • The mud that catches in the pram wheels when you've been chasing your toddler through the park and under the bubbler
  • When you're unfortunate enough to drive through some dog poo

We'll be trying this out ASAP!
