No Sippy Cups at Our House
| April 3, 2013 | Posted by eryn under Kids, Natural Living, Product Reviews |
As part of our resolution to give our son an upbringing inspired by Maria Montessori, we started giving him a glass to drink from from when he was about 1 year old. A shot glass proved to be the perfect size for his little hands and allowed him to improve his fine motor skills. But…
The Great Cheese Chase Cooperative Board Game Review
| March 21, 2013 | Posted by eryn under Kids, Natural Living, Product Reviews |
Have you tried playing cooperative board games with your kids? Ever since I first learned about these kinds of games, I thought the idea was truly inspired.

Since our first child is a boy, one of the things I’m enjoying about being a second-time mom is buying clothes for our daughter. I’m not really into super girly stuff, so finding clothes I really like isn’t always easy. With a newborn, I also like to have practical outfits that are easy for diaper…

I prefer to use non-toxic and eco-friendly cleaners as much as possible in our home, so when Seventh Generation introduced the first line of botanical disinfectants registered by the Environmental Protection Agency a couple of years ago, I started using them as soon as they hit the shelves. The company’s line of disinfectants includes a…

But it wasn’t until I found them at a bargain price that I decided to finally take the leap and use them as our regular laundry detergent. Unfortunately, my experience with…
