SOMETIMES you just want, or need, a morning lie-in.
But if you've got young kids the chances of that actually happening are slim to none.
That's why one busy mum came up with a clever hack that means she can relax in the mornings and doesn't have to worry about fetching her little ones snacks constantly.
Posting the trick on her TikTok account @mindfulofsoul and other parents loved the idea.
She explained: "Not all of us have the luxury of having a night off, so on the nights when you're like, 'In the morning I already know I'm going to be tired'.
"On night's like that you know what I do? I make a packed lunch for my kids."
