For keeping hands clean while out and about, MD Moms Cleansing Towelettes Travel Pouch is a good thing to have to keep in your diaper bag.
The cleansing towelettes have an hypoallergenic formula that contains MD Moms’ exclusive marine silk complex to maintain the skin’s moisture barrier. Antioxidant vitamins E and B5 help protect from environmental [...]

Vacuuming in our house used to be virtually impossible. I tried to wait for the right moment, grabbing the vacuum cleaner and sucking up the sea of crumbs where the kids had been. Usually, the big one tries to surf a ride as I clean and the little one likes to wrap herself up in [...]

It’s very easy to simply ignore baby’s oral hygiene needs. A lot of moms just declare that the second set of teeth will solve the problems of the first set. This is technically incorrect. The American Dental Association recommends cleaning baby’s teeth after each feed with a clean, wet washcloth. I look down at my [...]

This week I tried out three earth friendly Babyganics products: The Grime Fighter ($$6.99), The Sparkle Maker ($6.99) and Stain, Stain Go Away ($7.49).
I used The Grime Fighter: All-Purpose Cleaner in the bathrooms. With green cleaning products you never have those harsh chemical smells and this brand is no exception. The ingredients are all plant-based [...]

I’ve been using Seventh Generation products and am happy I’m making an effort to a new “greener” way of living. For washing the dishes I use Seventh Generation’s Automatic Dishwasher Detergent Pacs. There are 15 pacs in each recycle box. Chlorine and phosphate free, they are $5.49.

We’ve been especially using whatEver! All-Purpose Cleaner everyday. I use whatEver everywhere. It’s a great big bottle and has no horrible fragrance so I feel better about spraying [...]

The words green and cleaning product in the same sentence usually conjur up a pile of skepticism for me. So when I was faced with baby puke on the carpet, I thought it would be a pretty reluctant stain to remove. Plain water alone will not remove the unsightly marks.
Fortunately, I was sent Eco Mist [...]

For parents looking for eco-friendly household cleaners, Fields Organics has a great line of products that are kid-friendly.
The company really takes a stance in taking care of the environment. The cleaners are packaged in recyclable bottles and even their labels are made of recyclable paper and soy-based inks.
Fields Organics products include a floor cleaner, [...]

This is the product I have been waiting for. I have often wondered what the best way is to clean my son’s toys. Nothing will stop your little one’s prize possessions from becoming stained with peanut butter and juice. I have tried to avoid using anti-bacterial sprays and soap and water can potentially damage [...]

Keeping your child’s hands free of germs is important. Not only for them but also for you. I have lost count of the number of times I have been out with my son when he has been in germ factory communal play areas. At those places he will eventually put his hands to his mouth, [...]
