TikTok obsessed with ‘sports mom hack’ to save car from kids’ dirty sneakers

It’s coming up to that time of year again where school children will be out in the fields with their sports teams.

This usually means one thing for parents, muddy trainers and a ruined car.

But one mom has revealed a clever hack so that it doesn’t happen and you only need one item.

Emily Norris, posted the hack to her TikTok account, where it has been viewed over 600K times.

The easy hack only requires a kitchen caddy, which you can get for as little as $3.

In the video, Emily said: “Sports mom hack, this cleaning caddy has been saving my car.”

Emily simply puts the caddy on the floor of the car where her son is going to sit.

When he goes to climb into the car, he can sit down and swing his feet into the caddy, meaning there’s no muddy foot prints on the carpet. Genius.

The simple hack will save you a ton of money in the long run as well as your valuable time as you’ll no longer have to hoover or scrub your car after each soccer match.

Emily, a mother of three boys knows all too well what it’s like having to deal with the clean up of her boys’ muddy shoes after a soccer match or sports day at school.

Viewers were obsessed with the simple hack Emily shared, with many shocked they hadn’t thought of it themselves.

One user commented: “Why am I only knowing about this now at 59-years-old! To think of the rugby boots I dealt with years ago using plastic bags. You win best hack for me!”

“That’s so clever! Where were you when I needed you! Kids all grown up now!” Wrote another viewer.

A third person replied: “Omg I’m so gonna do this. Thank you for sharing your genius idea.”
