In our home tooth brushing is VERY important! It’s something we do every morning and night and with two children ages 2 1/2 and 5 years of age, it isn’t something that they love to do. We don’t have dental insurance, I don’t like gross looking teeth or bad breath and oral hygenie is linked [...]

greenandcleanmom — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 13:00:00 +0000

This Tuesday’s shout out goes to the Million Baby Crawl, organized by Seventh Generation. An idea that I can support, stand behind and cheer for! Last April when I hosted the Green Mom’s Carnvial and made the toxic tub video as a spoof, I took some heat. Now I’m just happy to see that the [...]

Preparing for the Cold and Flu Season

greenandcleanmom — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 00:21:00 +0000

It’s that time of year that the sniffles and sneezes begin and I become a little obsessive compulsive…. “Don’t put that in your mouth!” “Did you wash your hands?” These are things my children hear a million time per day but so far they haven’t gotten sick (knock on wood). I get reports from the school now on [...]
