How to Remove Toddler Stains Let’s be honest, toddlers are messy! They spill, roll, smear and stomp through EVERYTHING! And when I posted a video last week from Owen’s play date at the Morton Arboretum, I received dozens of messages about how muddy his outfit got. And I get it. Muddy toddlers make the calmest parents anxious. So I knew I had to share a few tips I have for removing toddler stains to save you all some of the stress that comes from toddler messes. All you’ll need is a stain remover (I swear by Puracy), a stain brush, some washing soda and a little vinegar. I let the mud stains on Owen’s outfit last week sit for a few days without treating them too just so you can see how effective this method is. All I do is spray on stain remover, let it sit five minutes, gently scrub the stains with my brush, then add to the laundry with some washing soda (has a higher pH than baking soda) and a little vinegar. I usually do a soak cycle in my laundry too just to ensure the stains come out. Then I air dry to ensure the stains are gone (once they’re in the dryer, they really set in) and that’s IT! Have any stain removing tips? I’m always on the lookout for more Mom Hacks! #LTKBacktoSchool
