Usually the bathroom is the smallest room of the house but the most loathed to clean. I always hated to clean my bathroom because of the strong smells of harsh chemicals I thought I had to use. Although there are times that chemicals such as bleach are needed (like in the instance of mold or bacteria problems) there are other options that will not leave you gasping for a breath of fresh air during your typical bathroom cleaning. This will especially help if you are currently pregnant. Here is what you need:
- Broom
- Mop
- Floor cleaner
- Toilet brush
- Glass/mirror cleaner
- White distilled vinegar
- Baking soda
- Bleach (possibly)
- Rags/brushes/sponges
(Note: White distilled vinegar works as a “green” disinfectant killing many germs, bacteria and mold and you don’t have to wear gloves while using it! Do not use on granite since it will etch the surface thus ruining it!) More

So this week let’s spring clean our bedroom together and make it a place we can relax in. To get started this is what you will need:

How do you get your kids to brush their teeth properly? Make it fun of course? Here are some Twiniversity Tips on getting your children to enjoy lifelong dental health!
Start “brushing” early. Baby’s teeth are just as important to keep clean as yours. Although they don’t have too many at first, their little tooth buds are sensitive and should always be kept clean. The earlier you start “brushing” your children’s teeth, the more familiar they become with having it as a part of their regular routine. It’s important for your kids to understand the importance of dental health. Years to come, it can make a big difference with the whiteness of their teeth, and the health of their gums and enamel.
