Discover the Forest: Get Your Community Outdoors!
I’ve fallen in love with GOOD Maker (maker.GOOD.is) — crowd-sourcing for a better world. Since discovering the GOOD Maker platform, it’s become my new “go-to” social media distraction. GOOD Maker inspires me to propose a good idea, to evaluate and vote for solutions– which is a way more productive use of my time than pinning a bunch of recipes I’ll never cook. Here’s an example of a challenge that intrigued me: “Discover the Forest’s Get Your Community Outdoors!” … Read entire article »

Whiten Your Teeth for Less With Arm & Hammer
When I see the celebs on TV, I’m sometimes blinded by their shiny, white teeth. Since I love coffee, red wine and many foods that stain teeth, I’m a bit jealous of their smiles. Cosmetic dentistry is very expensive, and whitening strips make my teeth feel sensitive. What’s a mom to do? I’ve tried whitening toothpastes in the past, but I’ve never noticed a difference. When Arm & Hammer challenged me to switch to their AdvanceWhite Toothpaste … Read entire article »
Switch and Save With Arm & Hammer Toothpaste
Finding the time to take good care of myself is hard to manage. As many moms know, personal care and beauty tend to fall to the bottom of the ever-growing “to-do” list. I make time to brush and floss twice daily, so I avoid cavities. But maintaining pearly white teeth feels like much more of an effort and a luxury. (Whitening strips and laser treatments aren’t cheap!) Almost every toothpaste claims to whiten nowadays, but I’ve … Read entire article »

What Stains Drive You Crazy?
My little boys are high energy; they zoom from one activity to the next without stopping for a breath. My older son loves soccer, which is a wonderful way to keep active, but terrible for keeping his clothes clean. Everything winds up with a grass or mud stain. The clothes that manage to escape the mud and grass get stained at lunch! Removing grass stains without fading the clothing is a big task, which is why … Read entire article »

Keeping Pool Toys and Lawn Furniture Fresh

I’ve already successfully used Arm & Hammer Baking Soda to clean my children’s bath toys and stuffed animals as well as to freshen our diaper pail and deodorize our refrigerator. I’ve also tested Arm & Hammer’s Spinbrush and Whitening Toothpaste. I don’t particularly enjoy large cleaning projects, but I do enjoy eating outside and playing with my kids … Read entire article »
