Back to School with Seventh Generation

Now that the fall school schedule has resumed and our kids are socializing amongst their friends and teachers that they missed over the summer a lurking menace is socializing with our children as well.

GERMS!

Disgusting, sickening germs that our children spread around as they touch things, sneeze, cough, you name it, they touch and spread this menace in the classroom and bring home to the family.

To prevent the spread of germs our teachers request that the students bring in hand sanitizer and disinfecting wipes. But as a parent, I am rather particular about the disinfecting wipes, cleaners, and products my children use at home. Our family is especially conscious about the environment and the harmful chemicals in some disinfecting and cleaning products. Seventh Generation has an amazing line of cleaning, disinfecting, and paper products for your home that are environmentally friendly and the ingredients are botanically based, on chemically.

For back to school My Blog Spark and Seventh Generation is promoting their line of disinfecting cleaner, wipes, and products for a healthier home, classroom, and to help keep our children healthier while promoting a healthier world to live in by reducing our carbon footprint.

  18. To help prevent germs, I do my best to dust the apartment about once a week and be sure to always equip myself and others with hand sanitizer and try to be a bit of a clean freak.

  54. Oh yes, I certainly owuld like to use this type of product. I am concerned about my family and my kids and grandkids. I probably drive my kids crazy as I always try to get them to eat healthy, and I cook from scratch, buy organic as much as possible, take supplements, make homemade keifer. I am now starting to make more foods for health. I am after them all the time about products they use on their body such as shampoos, soaps, and different toothpastes, etc.
    I also always tell them not to touch your eyes, ears, or mouth and everyone washes up as soon as they get home and when handling food. I clean off lightswitches and doorknobs to keep germs down, also.
