I have a couple of young children in nursery and they come home daily with the standard stains...

How do I get the out of their clothes!

I feel like I've tried everything and hang it all on the line in the sun!

Their clothes are being to look like a film set wardrobe from a post apocalyptic movie.

I'm weaning DD2 this morning so you can imagine the stains and have managed to get mango and Raspberry stains out of whites!

I've been putting the clothes in a wash alone with 1 fairy capsule on a synethics cold quick wash (20 mins) then washing them straight after on a 40 degrees wash. I has worked several times other than a blueberry stain on a muslin even the sun didn't get that outb

I tried plunging things into cold water (a friend said something about organic matter and cold water) but there's still grime! Grime!

They're not growing out of clothes as quickly as they once were so things are getting hideous.

Isn't there a special potion??

Rub washing up liquid into the stain before washing in bio powder

I think I would give up and keep separate clothes for nursery!

I've had the most success with sunlight, washing up liquid and Ace.

I'm off to fill the machine with washing up liquid...

It's mainly nursery but it's also life! They're quite outdoorsy kids and seem to attract dirt. They always look like they've had a wonderfully adventurous day!!!!!!!

Dont put washing up liquid in your machine - use an old toothbrush to scrub with it before you wash 😁
