Do your kids or grandkids always manage to always get toothpaste over the counter, tube and in some seriously impressive places?

Well, one Australian mum has found a super easy alternative to keeping the bathroom clean!

The savvy woman took to Facebook to reveal her clever invention, which involves emptying the tube of toothpaste into a SOAP dispenser in order to help her four-year-old daughter squeeze out the right amount at a time - and people are going crazy over it.

Alongside a picture of a soap dispenser filled with toothpaste, the inventive mum wrote: "Sick of wasting toothpaste and the kids making a mess? Problem solved."

"This has saved my bathroom," one mum responded.

Another added: "Great idea. I'm going to get onto this one tomorrow and try it with my kids."
