Summer always goes by so fast, doesn't it? Suddenly you're there trying to juggle work, school, and activities again. It easily becomes a bit chaotic – but also quite nice to get back to routines. And right now it can be comforting to think about those small habits that make everyday life both easier and a little kinder to the environment. Here are some everyday tips from OMOM:
Fruit bags - We go through a lot of fruit on the go. Instead of wrapping in plastic or putting everything in disposable bags, we use our fabric fruit bags. They breathe while protecting the fruit, keep the fruit fresh, and are easy to wash when needed.
Gym bags - Our fabric gym bags are made to last year after year – completely organic!
Pocket - The Pocket bag is small and handy, perfect to have in your pocket or handbag. It fits your fruit bags or other small everyday items you want to keep track of. So you don't have to stress about "where should I put all this?" when you're on the go. Many use the large Pocket at preschool for a small change of clothes. Or bring the most important crafts when you are going to spend some time in the car.
Baskets - When routines come back, it's also nice to create some order at home. Our baskets made of natural materials are just as suitable for hats and mittens in the hallway as for yarn, toys, or magazines in the living room.
The great thing is that it doesn't have to be so big and difficult. Small choices – like which bag to bring or where to put your gym clothes – become routines that last. And those small routines actually make the biggest difference in the long run. 🌿
