Dads get a bad wrap. Think about that sitcom dad. Mom goes away for an afternoon. When she gets back, the house is in shambles because the idiot dad doesn’t know how to cook, clean, walk, chew gum or just function when he’s alone with children. The new generation of dads (the Playground Dads, if you will…) are chipping away at this stereotype each day. So we love to spotlight products that help us do the chipping. Such products make up the Playground Dad toolkit: Stuff you use to help stay organized and wow mom.
The Mimi the Sardine lunch bag has been part of this toolkit for years. You might not assume that a simple lunch bag could elevate you into elite daddyhood but it’s often the simple things that make the difference. What initially stands out about these bags are the great prints. Kids love the bright designs and will take great ownership over them. When you get home, the bags are easy to clean. Just throw them in the washing machine and you’re done. Finally, these bags are about as eco/health-friendly as you can get, meeting the Oeko-Tex 100 standard…not 100% sure what that is, but it keeps kids healthy, so we’re in.
Picture this: It’s a Saturday afternoon, you’ve been on an outing with the kids. Mom comes home to find out that you’ve packed a great snack for the kids. Snack was in a lunch bag they loved, so they made sure not to lose it. The bag is already clean and put away because it was so easy. Let’s not forget that the kids were safe from harmful chemicals. Congrats, you have chipped away at the idiot dad stereotype. Thanks Mimi the Sardine!
