I initially posted this in the bitching forum and then thought it's something I'd like to post in Lounge for input/suggestions.
----------------
It's nice outside so when I go to pick up DS the kids are always outside in the school yard. Fresh air, exercise, great! But ... DS is always covered in sand from the giant sandbox. I dust off what I can, but it sticks in his hair, fills his shoes and socks. So when he gets into the car it's like coming home from a beach trip.
And now DD heads for the sandbox, too, whenever we go pick up DS and she takes a nap when we get home so I have to brush her off and change her clothes completely.
Suggestions? I thought about taking off his shoes before he gets in the car, but they actually contain the sand on his feet until we get home.
Do you put something down on the floor to shake out? The car mats don't cover the footwell all the way?
Oh yeah, we just bought a new car so maybe I'm hypersensitive about the sand filling the interior. LOL
