8 years ago, we welcomed our first child to this world. At that moment I begin to think about things differently. The world was no longer about my wife and me. It was now about this child. The first couple weeks / months are a little blurry, learning and just trying to get through. One thing was clear from the beginning, being first time parents, we wanted everything to be clean. Cleaning became an obsession. Tables, chairs, floors, etc. Everything had to be clean.
And like many people we were happy cleaning our home and our baby’s toys with whatever would “kill” the bad stuff. We felt good when we walked in a room and it smelled like cleaner.
About 5 years ago, a friend of ours asked what chemicals are in our cleaning products? I did not know but I was told it “kills” the bad stuff. What else does it do?
It made me think. What is in the stuff we are cleaning our child’s toys with?
That day we were introduced to natural cleaning products without harsh chemicals. The difference is amazing. Once we got started, we were throwing out the chemicals under our sinks and replacing them with natural cleaners. This is one of the changes we made to a healthier lifestyle and the difference is amazing.
If you want to stop using harsh chemicals to clean your kid’s toys and your home, comment “clean” below and I will contact you with information about the ditch and switch my family made 5 years ago.
