For parents with sweet-craving children, this clever hack might come in handy. A mum demonstrated how to open a packet of sweets without any hassle.

The revelation has been well-received. Casey Major-Bunce, who posts under the handle @majormumhacks, went viral with her latest Instagram post.

She revealed how to quickly open and reseal sweet packets. Sharing this life-changing tip with her 636,000 followers, she wrote: "Save for later. Did you know this?"

Casey continued: "I hate when sweet packets are open in the cupboards or in the car. Also, kids struggle to open the packets, so this works."

"Sorry if I seem sad, but I thought this was super cool. I need to get a life... I know #mumhack #organise."
