These are great tips! I’m also a mother of 3 and one of my favorite tips is to buy a towel (I got black because the floor of my car is black) and lay it over the floor in the back seat. It catches sand, goldfish, everything! Then when it gets gross you just fold it up (shake it out if it needs it) throw it in the wash and replace!
Omg brilliant 😁👍 thanks for sharing
Genius!
I'm from the UK and had a slightly freaked out at the mention of goldfish 🤣. Assume you mean a snack of some sort?!
Another tip is to keep like one or two handled laundry baskets in the trunk, when you shop you just chuck everything in there then when you need to take it all in the house you just take the basket and then put in back once it's empty. You can also store things in them that stay in the car and its stops them from rolling around
I bought a box bag from Walmart, like the reusable bags for $4-5, but sturdier for shopping.
I have a tall laundry basket behind the third row of seats in my van. I drop my grocery bags (and others) in it and it has made it so easy to keep things together.
@@nybsbfan18 what does the box bag look like please?
Genius! Thank you!
These are wonderful!
My only thing about the registration and ownership being in the glove box. Not saying it *has* to stay there, but if you're pulled over by police I don't know if you can get out and grab what you need from the trunk or somewhere inaccessible from the front seat. So just be careful about that one.
I was going to say the same thing.
I was going to say the same thing.
Just snap a pic of both and you will always have it available on your phone. Just check your state laws though. Or you could also keep them in your wallet.
@@Stephanie-et3fr Canadian here. We have to have a physical piece of paper with proof of ownership in the car, unfortunately. Also we can actually be charged for old ones laying around, even if we're all updated 🙃
Many of the newer cars have the sunglass holder or garage remote holder thing in the center on the roof, I put my insurance and registration there. Just offering a different place to put it :)
My mom hack is to keep a thing of sprinkles in your glove box so that you can go to McDonalds for coffee and get your kids the cheap ice cream but fulfill the sprinkle request so it’s still fun. Haha
I’m an old retiree and I gotta tell you, I have learned so much from you!!!! These car hacks are helpful even if you don’t have young children. Thanks!!!
Wow you are really cranking out the content at 39 weeks, you go girl!
When my kids were little I always carried a small first aid kit in the glove box. Then I started adding more practical things like safety pins, pen, pencil, sticky notes, stain remover stick, tape, wipes, and scissors. Saved me so many times and still had plenty of room for other things!
First aid kit is a mandatory item in a car. Or is that not the case for the US? I am genuinely courious.
My kids are in their forties & with different ages of grandchildren, I still carry these items in my car.. Have even used 1st aid kit with strangers. Things we never out grow!👍😊
@@nikoletahanakova8573 no it’s not…
@@nikoletahanakova8573 here in France you need to have a first aid kit, high visibility vest and an emergency triangle in the car. You’re also supposed to have spare lightbulbs for your car headlights.
@@Bougie92 It is the same in Slovakia, where I am from. And a spare tire or a tire repair kit. I think this is universal across European Union.
The tissue holder on the visor works better when you clip it to where the tissues are easy to pull with the visor closed...facing out, not folded up in the visor. That's just my personal opinion of how I used to use mine. I had these for our cars 20 years ago. They were the brand Tempo. I have a cloth rag basket in my front passenger seat for easy reach tissues etc. I'm the only one who ever drives my car. I rarely have anyone ride with me. If I do I put it in the back seat or trunk. It has never fell off the seat. My seats are cloth, so it doesn't slide. The one that hooks is a good idea though. I bought mine in gray from target to match my car seats. It has handles on each side as well. My glovebox and door pockets have other essentials. I hid my garage door opener years ago. I have my insurance card digital, but not my registration. My center console is my car trash can. I line it with a small plastic bag and it actually holds a lot. I also use a vent phone holder. It keeps my phone out of the way. However, there is a place to lay it with a built in sliding door cover. I keep a few extra things in there, even though that's were the phone outlets are located. I use a spiral cord for my phone. I love that thing. It's never in the way or hanging wonky. I have four of the target collapsible cloth cubes in my truck. They hold small throws, jumper cables, personal hygiene items grocery store reusable bags, etc...they are so great, and stay in place perfectly with the way my trunk is made. I have the plastic slim pockets for between my seats. I can stick napkins and other slim stuff in them. I no longer lose stuff down the cracks. I bought them at the dollar tree plus section. Lots of great tips in your video. I don't use the purse hook for my purse. I hang umbrellas and baby wipes with a hand loop. Since it's just me in the car I place my purse on the front passenger seat. My car came with a fist aid kit. It's in one of the cubes in the trunk of the car.
PLEASE keep your insurance card and registration in a “easy to access” place. I keep in my arm rest. Honestly it’s essential that you have it where it’s handy. You’re not gonna want to get in the trunk or in the back to get yours insurance and registration if you need it in an emergency. 😬
I have my insurance card in my Apple Wallet. Hopefully one day registration & drivers license will be available that way too in CA.
Honest question, what emergency are you going to be in where you aren't getting out of the car? Cops usually ask for insurance, and I've shown them that in my phone for the past decade.
Yeah you probably don’t want your licence and registration in the trunk when you get pulled over…
@@bamagirlce12 What if you’re in an accident? What if you get pulled over by the police? Your insurance card and registration is supposed to be in a handy location. But if you feel safe with it in your trunk by all means go ahead. Not something I would do. And it’s not like it takes very much room in your glove compartment or the center console.
@@mrsclark5533 some states don't allow that. Please check with local laws. Its best to keep a hard copy in reach if you are traveling out of state, just in case.
I LOVE the Drop Stop !!❤❤❤
Careful to not overheat your phone on the vent. I accidently had heat blasting on it one winter and my phone went on emergency cool down.
You could put the owners manual and registration under the drivers seat I even think they make drawers to go under the seat😊
Vehicle manuals fit under front passenger seat very nicely.
Can't wait to throw school bags on the new hooks I'll be ordering. Thanks for the tip
Hmmm, transforming the glove box to hold other things. And since I've only referred to my owners manual to change the clock twice a year (older cars don't do this automatically like my iPhone), I've now stored it under the front passenger seat. Thanks for the idea!!!!!
I just got a dollar tree cup holder dupe and it had the drink cup and 2 extra spots for phone etc.
The glove box idea is genius. Also love the purse hook.
There is actually a product that combines the "cup holder extender" and the "thing that stops stuff from falling in between the seat area".
It's basically a long yet slim storage thing, I dont even know how to describe it. It slides in between the seat and the middle console of your car and has many compartments, for cups or cans, for the phone and for small stuff.
Amazing item.
I think if you google "between Seat organizer" you will understand what I'm trying so hard to explain 😊😂😂
It's so refreshing to see someone who has an older car! I have a 2012 Mazda & it seems to be the oldest car anyone has! (Outside vintage)
I have a 2003 Honda-us old car owners are out there! 👋😁
We have older vehicles, too. 2002 Mazda is our newest model. I am proud that we keep our older (debt free) vehicles looking so good. Not ashamed to drive them at all. 😊
I’m gonna have a mom moment here: “no gum when filming” lol
I was going to add the same thing. Very distracting and unprofessional
Yup. Very distracting!! I kept trying to see when she’ll move it to the other side
Omg! You’re right! I’m so mad for not thinking about utilizing my glove box for things I actually need.
Best of luck for your delivery, wishing you a smooth experience and a healthy baby and mama!
I can’t wait to get my car cleaned up and organized. Thank you.
I stash quarters in the ashtray for the parking meters.
I love the car hooks for shopping bags with bread or chips!
FYI- some states require you to have your insurance and registration within easy reach, which wouldn't be the trunk.
I’m hoping the next video is with your next newborn. Good luck and praying for a beautiful healthy baby. Good luck. ❤❤❤
I'm thinking of using towels rolled up for stops beside seats. This way, i can unroll & use them if necessary. Have to get the right size, of course.
The organizer in the front seat! I just got a different car and bought two of those organizers. The first was kinda cheap and I ended getting a second one for the back. I'll utilize the lighter weight one in the front.
And this car has a huge glovebox. I'm going to rearrange some things.
I might still keep your registration up front - even if you’re a safe driver if you get pulled over for a light out or something you won’t want to go all the way to the trunk! Maybe get those pockets that go between the seat and console and just keep that registration where you can get it easy! Like the ideas though!
I was always taught to never keep your registration in your glove box or car. If someone breaks in your car then they have access to your personal information, home address, name, etc.
I saw a hack where someone used a pool noodle cut to fit, close up the gap between the seat and counsel.
I like the expandable, multi pocket container, so many uses.
I also have an empty wet wipes box in the counsel, keep a supply of random things so I don't have to carry them in a purse, band aids, wet wipes, safety pins, panty liners, hair ties, what ever works for your life style. There if you need something but not a need to carry in a purse every day.
Foam pipe insulation works as a drop stop between car seat and console. More flexible than a pool noodle. Cut it to whatever length your seat gap is.
The hooks are great for your purse. I am already using them. If you put it behind the passenger seat, you as the driver can easily reach your purse.
Looooooove the drop stops!!!!!
Just be careful with the vent mounts. I loved them for a long time, but they broke the vents faster.
Love your videos! You’re great ideas are so helpful.
I keep my license and registration in a special holder I bought from Amazon which I keep in the glove box. I was rear-ended so hard by an SUV a few years ago that I couldn’t open my trunk. So, for me, the glove box still seems like the the most logical place to store these important papers.
When I was travelling with work... I used a deep washing up bowl and the seatbelt for easily accessible items for client calls/ my journey
When you had the car honking sound effect my dog went berserk and almost didn't watch the rest but I'm so glad I did because two of those items were exactly what I've been looking for. I got the air vent phone holder and the folding with your affiliate links. My new car has no place to rest a phone and the windshield is too far back for a suction cup mount.
I think I need almost all of those hacks. Definitely the drop stop and the cell phone holder.
Thanks for the tips! Hopefully you research which carseats will safely fit 3 across in your specific car. Or you can join the cool moms and get a minivan lol. Just kidding, I just really love my Toyota Sienna.
Maybe someone already said this, but it just occurred to me… seems like one of those “purse organizers” would fit perfectly in the glove box! It has slots and open pockets for everything! 😮 your tips are great! Thank you!
Just a tip shared by a local body shop on keeping items on your passenger seat. It is recommended that it be kept free of any weight that can activate the air bags, when no occupant in seat, in an accident unless the air bag(s) is/are deactivated.
Thanks for the cup holder suggestion! I didn’t know they had ones with a compartment for a cell phone that is brilliant! I just went and ordered one!
I have the bin. Amazing for trips or running around town returning Amazon products.
2009 Odyssey here. Feel your squished up feeling. 2 adults 3 teens. Yep it's tight.
I remember with both of my kids that big burst of energy right before I was going to have them.💛 Best of luck Kallie this video has great tips and is full of energy. You look great and are definitely in the home stretch now. 🎉
I miss my 2012 Outback 😞 it’s in the shop/likely scrapping it. These would’ve been so perfect for it. GIRL BTW MAKE SURE YOU GET YOUR HEAD GASKET CHECKED REGULARLY!! They fail on our cars regularly and destroy the engine!!
I LOVE YOU!! 😂 1 minute into this video and I'm already praising you and saying thank you because I have a 2013 Outback with the same cup holders. So thank you so much for the cup holder extender. I'm getting ready to take a trip at some point so I can't thank you enough!
I hope your labor and delivery goes well. God Bless Kallie❤
There is nothing like a Subaru!
Omg the glove box hack just blew my mind
These are really great and practical! I hope you are feeling well. You look amazing!
I always have Mty first aid kit in my car and spare setof clothes for my youngest son
I didn’t read comments to see anyone posted this. But be careful especially older cars with food snacks in the glove box. Mice tend to find a way in and it’s a perfect place to make a nest. Don’t keep napkins in there either. Nesting materials
I live in Texas, so nothing is more important than the AC flowing through the vents. I will never have anything blocking the vents. My favorite cell phone mount is the magnetic one so you don't have to wrestle getting it into the arms of the other holders. The magnet does not interfere with the phone at all and is very strong. I have never had a phone fall from its mount in at least 4 years!
Have laugh at the gum 😜 love your video’s can’t wait to meet the new member of the family
Congratulations on baby #3! Great tips!
Great tips!! I would still keep your car records with you though...I refer to them a lot, so I don't get taken advantage of by mechanics. But what I do for that is use a folder, keep the receipts on one side, the other I just put a sheet of paper and list the date, mileage, and what I had done and where. I've been doing this for all of my cars for years and it is so so easy and life-changing!
I used to do that too. Now I have a folder for all of that on my phone/computer along with photos of the receipts. It was very helpful having all of the service records when I went to sell my last car. The prospective buyer was able to see that it was well maintained and always serviced at the same garage.
Heads up if you have the auto adjust seats for each driver and it is a big change the stop drop things like to lift up. on the passenger side never had a problem, just the driver side since it goes all the way back when you turn off the car then when you get in and start the car it moves the seat.
I love the canvas bin idea, thanks for sharing it.
I love the glove box idea and drop stop! Also clothes in ziplock bags... I don't have enough room for that in the glove box (I'd rather fill it with snacks😂) but I have extra clothes in a bag in the back, and I'm gonna organize them in bags with the childs name on it to make it easier if daddy or someone else gets them! I keep tissues in both side door pockets.
When I used to travel with my laptop, I would buckle the seat belt around it. 3rd This is great also for other large things such as a large pasta pot when going to a potluck or other event.
I got the phone holder and the seat gap fillers. I love them both!!❤
I do the same thing with my glove box. Lol. Great information. Thanks for sharing. 😊
My cars have been organized for years but I do like the looks of the headrest hooks you use better than the ones I currently have!
Excellent tips, thanks so much for sharing! ♥
Good video. Nice ideas.
Loved these ideas. Thanks.
My kids are grown, but I have a car seat in the back seat for my grandson. Will soon have one for my granddaughter. I do have storage in between the front seats under the arm rest, which is where I keep a tissue box. I love the idea of using the glove box for other items. Thanks for the video!
great video. I just went to amazon and ordered the bag holder. I've been looking for some for my car. can't wait til they get here.
Love these videos bring lots of new ideas and with four kids even more thank you ❤
Good ideas. I like the clips to hang purse or shopping bags. I’m going to look for some.
I have a buckled cardboard box I fashioned in my passenger seat but this is 10x better!
Thank you for this video. My car can definitely use some smart products❣
Thanks for this! Totally agreed with the cellphone holder. Excellent design, simple to use, and sturdy.
Love it! My car phone holder has a magnet.
Love the frozen bread loaf tricks/hacks. The shortcut s'mores are also a good idea! Ty for sharing.
LOVE this! SO helpful!!
Great idea ! Thank you 🙏🏽
Great tip, as always!
Love your channel always ❤
In my glove box, it has a couple separate compartments, so I’ve put a small first aid kit, a sample big black garbage bag bc it came compact in a little plastic bag, wipes, diaper trash bags (for any kind of mess plus’s they smell like powder lol), a small zipper bag of feminine products with individual wipes, a vinyl bag with a zipper I got from dollar tree to hold my napkins and straws, it also has small pockets on the side that I put travel Tylenol and ibuprofen in along with children’s chewable ibuprofen and Tylenol. In a ziploc bag I have extra condiments. I also keep a couple wrapped utensils. I have my tire pressure gauge, and a flat flashlight from the dollar tree.
In my center console I a tray that slides back and forth with spots for change, I also keep a multi tool knife, a zipper pouch with flossers, a couple dollar bills, and a travel toothbrush and toothpaste. In the bottom of the console I keep a travel size of lotion, hand sanitizer, a nail file, 2 pens, a mechanical pencil, travel tissues, travel deodorant, chapstick, and more travel ibuprofen.
For my 8 year old I created some travel art packs for her from the dollar tree. I bought 3 of these cute plastic file pouches with a button and put blank and lined paper in one, sketch pads and color sheets in another, left the other empty so she could put her completed art work in that one, got a little lunch box and put her crayons in it, little note pad, little headphone zipper pouch (dollar tree) for her headphones, pencil case for pens, pencils, and colored pencils, coupon book to hold stickers (again both from dollar tree), and then a clipboard to put in the back of the seat.
I keep an umbrella that flips inside out and is auto open/close next to my driver seat, lap blankets (my mom crocheted) in the net of my trunk during winter, extra grocery bags for trash/misc, reusable grocery bags.
these are great recommendations , thank you!
I’ve never thought of using the glove box 😅 and I have 4 kids! I suppose it’s not too late to turn it into our snack stash haha!
I need everything you mentioned thank you my car is a hot mess right now
Love @thecarmom ! I cleaned out my glove box too!
Good Ideas!! U always have the best ideas!! I ordered the Night Light In The Potty from Amazon after U showed it yesterday! 😊
I will most definitely get the tissue holder and I have a similar bag to the one in your passenger seat that would be perfect in our vehicle that has sports gear in it for practices! I wasn't even using it when I could have been all along. 😅
i haven't watched you channel in months and i come back to learn you have another baby!! Congrats!
Love these ideas. I don't have little children but grandbabies ride some with me. Mainly I just like to have am organized car.
Omg congrats on the baby!!
Thank you so much!!!
Best wishes for happy, healthy mom, baby & new family of five!
I have always heard you should keep your registration in your wallet. If your car gets stolen or broken into it could be a problem. Too much info for a valet and easy to access if you have an accident or stopped by the police. I do plan to empty my glove compartment and make more room for the things I would need more often. Thanks for the tip!
Good luck with the new baby, sweet lady!!
Thanks for the video! Very relevant, I drive a 2018 Outback and we just had our third baby last week, my older ones are 5 yo and almost 3 yo which I think is similar to you
Thank you!!!
I removed my registration and took a photo of it and have it in my phone. I don’t like having anything with my address in my car in case it ever gets stolen, at least they don’t know where I live, especially since my garage door opener is also in the car.
but will a cop accept that if you get pulled over?
In some states the cop will not accept any digital copies. Please check with local laws.
@@razzledazzle5933 I’ve already used it once in Texas and no issue. My insurance card too.
@@leeannalmanza3182 hopefully I don’t ever find out. I was in an accident, not my fault, and he accepted it then. I will do some research to make sure. I know insurance is for sure okay to have digitally.
Great ideas!
I use those seat hooks to hold fragile groceries from rolling around in the trunk of my suv
Fantastic!
Great video quick question I love your lashes what do you use?❤
Hi! Love your videos! Could you make a video or short about more building self-discipline?
Ok so you’ve blown my mind 😱 never thought to put my owners manual some where else 🤯
