@SeventhGen Healthy Baby Home Party- Generation Good


As a member of the Generation Good community,I was thrilled to host  a Healthy Baby Home Party.  I was sent an awesome package of free products tp try with my Mom Group. 
We had such a great time talking about creating the best pure clean environment and how important it is for our families especially our babies.

Many Mom were surprised to  learn cleaning product companies are NOT currently required to list all ingredients on the package because there are no regulations in place. can you believe that!! Time for companies to #comeclean!

Seventh Generation believes you have the right to know what's in the products you buy. They take great pride in over 25 years of 
 creating powerful plant-based solutions for your home & family.

A few products we discussed were wipes & diapers. 


Specially designed to care for your baby and planet Free & Clear Wipes deliver the clean you need with the gentle care your baby's skin deserves.
  • Free of alcohol, fragrances & dyes
  • Free of parabens and phthalates 
  • Hypoallergenic
  • Thick, strong and generously-sized



I like how thick they are --you get a GREAT wipe the first time.  Free & Clear Baby wipes use 70% less plastic than our original wipes, thanks to the use of plant materials. 


Combined premium absorbency with a snug, comfy fit around the legs and adjustable, re-sealable tabs Free& Clear diapers keeps babies skin protected and dry. They are available in a print or un-printed style.

  • Made for your baby's sensitive skin
  • Hypoallergenic diapers
  • 0% lotions and fragrances
  • Ultra-absorbent core free from chlorine bleaching
  • FSC-certified






We discussed a few other products and how they have improved over the past year-

 Laundry -  while still supplying the awesome safe clean they have  upgraded 100 oz. bottles to use 20% plant-based plastic made from sugar cane for greater strength—and they're still fully recyclable!  Over 90% of the greenhouse gas emissions associated with  laundry detergent are from heating the water and drying the clothes during use at home. The EnergySmart line of products is even more effective in cold water than  previous detergents to help save energy by reducing the need for washing in hot or warm water.

Be a tourist in your hometown! #WesternNewYork, Break'n Eggs Creperie, #GlennFallsPark #SocialSummer


Have you ever been a tourist in your own neighborhood?  See something new, try a new restaurant, or shop in a new store. Living in Western New York many think of Buffalo right away, it is after all the 2nd largest city in NY, the Big Apple has us beat just a bit. 





The surrounding area is filled with great towns and  villages. One town is Williamsville NY. Main Street is lined with cute shops. You can find  Clothes, Jewelry, Art,Toys, and many Cafés  . 

This past weekend I decided to visit Break'N Eggs a charming Creperie. Went on a Saturday  during brunch  hours, was about a 20 minute wait.  I like being able to see everything the chefs do in their open kitchen. I ordered Warm Granny Smith Apple with Maple Syrup and whip cream  and a Dulce De Leche with apple candies walnut and caramel sauce. DEVINE! The little bit of tart from the apple paired well with the sweet caramel.





After such a rich brunch, I needed to move (so I would feel less guilty about those calories) 

Right off of Main St is a little park, A gem I've herd about for years but only discover myself last year.  Glenn Fall, there are several ponds and concrete walking paths. The water fall and beautiful blooms make it a favorite backdrop for many wedding parties and family portraits. 







 What makes your town unique?  What do you love about living in your town? I think  could visit every small town and village surrounding Western New York and find a new gem every weekend.

Celebrating National Coloring Day and little learning SHhhhhhh don't tell the kids THEY THINK IT's FUN!

 I love to color...always have  but I never new there was a National Coloring Day. August 2nd is - Amazing right!  Although around here we are still enjoying Summer Vacation  it is getting closer to the dreaded BTS time.... so I'd thought I'd share  these unique ideas for making coloring an educational experience for kids. [shhhhhh if it's fun they don't think of it as learning ]

There are some great sites that can help- Educents  has traditional coloring books. They also  offers educational activity books and downloadable pages that encourage learning while coloring.  There are a verity of subjects such as math, history, letters, geography, art and more. Super to keep minds sharp for the Summer on road trips  and is a wonderful tool for Homeschooling too.



these printables  are fabulous tools, because they can
be used along many stages. Introduce with just coloring, then
exploring sounds, finally there are lines for handwriting.
If you have multiple ages slide the sheets in a page protector and
 use dry erase markers to color and trace again 
and again 



Some are free others start at about $3 for a package.




Get your creative juices flowing  with Debbie Lynn's new gigantic coloring poster- it's amazing! Coloring is good for the soul and good for all ages- plus, showcasing the final product is an inexpensive way to decorate your house. Color the poster with Debbie Lynn's long-lasting pens and colorful markers.

Just look how lovely!
Imagine how good it would
look using these BOLD colors!




 Coloring is therapeutic for all ages- treat your kids to this special personalized  gift!  See Me is the leader in personalized books and gifts- any child will love their adorable coloring sets with their own name on it. Plenty of bundle options to choose from- fairies, farms, and rocket ships and more.




Just think of the hours of fun your child will have 
reading, coloring and completing all the 
actives in these books.



So next week Tuesday 8/2  be sure to get your color on!  I know we will.
