There’s nothing worse than last-minute laundry — especially when your kid’s soccer uniform is full of grass and dirt stains. Creating a laundry rotation based on their game schedule will prevent any hiccups and last-minute loads. Whether you wash during the weekends or take care of the laundry in the evenings when everyone’s winding down, having a schedule will ensure your kid is ready to play! Pro tip? Use Clorox® Laundry Sanitizer to remove tough odors from smelly towels to your kids’ stinky sports uniforms.
