Keeping Kids Happy and Healthy all Summer long

The lazy days of Summer are now upon us and while it’s so tempting to toss away the everyday routine one thing we can’t let the kids skip out on is staying healthy! We might be sleeping in a tad bit later, but morning routines are still in place which includes a healthy breakfast, brushing their teeth and sunscreen before heading to the sandbox. 


To keep things fun for the boys we’ve been trying a few new products in the bathroom!

toothpaste

 

Toms of Maine is a natural minty fluoride free toothpaste, it’s not too ‘hot’ as my boys would say but has a nice cool mint flavour. All of the Kiss My Face for kids products have really fun packaging that the kids love! This Berry Smart toothpaste has no parabens, artificial colours or flavours but still tastes berri-licious! The Carry Clean toothbrushes were a big hit with the boys, they love the way they suction right onto the countertop!

Bathtime really ramps up in the summer months since days are filled with sand, grass and dirt and nights are spent on the soccer field! Kiss My Face has a great chemical free Shampoo and Conditioner in one with a fresh Orange U Smart citrus scent.

Kiss My Face Kids Natural Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30 is perfect for little ones who want to have fun in the sun. it contains no nanoparticles, phthalates, fragrances, artificial colors, or animal ingredients. And, it’s gluten free, biodegradable, and not tested on animals. I found it required a little extra work to get the lotion to soak in and not leave white showing on the skin, but well worth the effort.

Summer colds are not uncommon, I woke up to the sounds of two coughing kids this morning. When fevers hit at any time of the year try the Be Koool soft gel sheets to relieve the discomfort. They are sized for children’s foreheads and last up to 8 hours. No refrigeration is required, they are ready to go when you are and can be tossed away when done.
