Commercialism, Children and Toys

I opened up my sons backpack this morning to a book he made about emotions. He’s four and this is a common theme to be taught and as a past preschool teacher, a necessary one. I was anxious to read his book and thought he tell me it made him happy to be with mom [...]

Juicy Savings

R.W. Knudsen is a juicy family and they’re giving a mom like me a sensible juice option for my children. An option that is USDA certified organic, with no added sugar (or anything else for that matter) and they are 50% juice and 50% water meaning less sugar and calories. Offered in child-friendly, unbreakable 4.23 [...]

Save Money and Help the Planet

Guest Post by Patricia Wooster http://www.projectorganiceating.com Let’s face it…..the economy is in bad….bad shape. The house I bought 2 years ago is worth 25% less today, my husband and I spend $300 a month more in gas, and the stock market is shrinking our retirement account daily. It’s time for us to re-evaluate our finances [...]

Barefoot Books has a ton of new fall titles! With the holiday season approaching it’s a great idea to get started because before you know it Christmas will be here! The good thing about a book for a Christmas gift, children learn something, it can be used over and over again and if taken care [...]

Honey Bee Crisis

greenandcleanmom — Sun, 02 Nov 2008 18:48:21 +0000

Honey bee, honey bee, where did you go? Personally, I don’t like bees but they’re important. I like honey though. My children actually love honey. Biscuits and honey, peanut butter and honey sandwiches, honey in our smoothies, honey in our tea, honey won’t you come home to me…I just had to write that! Unfortunately, we [...]

What does organic, romantic and bathtime have in common?

greenandcleanmom — Thu, 30 Oct 2008 12:00:18 +0000

Bathing my children, it’s a nightly routine. It’s calming for the children and for me, I like to have the children smelling clean. Sorry, I just do. I always took a bath nightly and so do my children. They bath together and we don’t use very much water, so were conserving. Using a non-toxic, gentle [...]

Plastic Grocery Bags: Everyone has some!

greenandcleanmom — Wed, 29 Oct 2008 12:00:41 +0000

I know that the proper green phase is “reduce, reuse, recycle” and that they are in the order of importance. So the best thing would be to use less plastic grocery bags. And we do – a lot less. However, I do not think I will ever get my husband to take a cloth bag [...]

What’s For Dinner?

greenandcleanmom — Fri, 24 Oct 2008 12:00:09 +0000

While I enjoy cooking, I must admit that I find it hard to come up with a healthy, locally grown, appetizing dinner every night. The pressure! And add to that three kids who have different tastes, a super healthy husband, and me working too… So what is a girl to do?? I have some tried [...]

Flip Video Review

greenandcleanmom — Sun, 19 Oct 2008 20:10:35 +0000

Flippin’ awesome. Can I have a two-word review and end it at that? I’m not sure what else to say other then, go buy one because it really is worth it. The power of the Internet and social media marketing is truly incredible. Ask and you shall receive. I tweeted about wanting to add video [...]

The greatest part of having a “Green” blog, learning about companies that are making an effort to go green and help the environment, it’s inspirational. This was the reason I started the Mommy Go Green Blog Tours, to help spread the word and connect moms with companies. A fairly basic concept but for a niche [...]
