Buncha Farmers Stain Stick

Having 2 boys here we get alot of stains. Especially when using cloth diapers. I was excited to try Buncha Farmers Stain Remover.

How many times have you had perfectly good clothes ruined by stains? Or avoided buying white clothes and linens because stains are just too hard to remove? Well, no more. Buncha Farmers All Natural Stain Remover works on grass, red wine, ketchup, blood, grease, underarm stains, and so much more. Even the most stubborn stains are washed away. Your favourite blouse, your grandmother’s lace tablecloth, your child’s car seat, even your walls and carpets – all of them can be treated with All Natural Stain Remover. Ordinary stain removers contain chemical detergents, but Buncha Farmers All Natural Stain Remover is real soap. It’s made with all-natural, biodegradable ingredients, and enhanced with borax to soften the water and aid the cleaning process. There are no artificial dyes or perfumes, just the fresh, clean scent of natural eucalyptus and the deodorizing power of litsea. Will not discolour clothes or fabrics. Best of all, it works. "NOTE" If you encounter a very stubborn stain like blueberry or a baked in stain,you might have to apply the stain remover a couple of times or work at it by hand. it should start to fade and fade until you get it out. "TIPS": Cut or scrape off a little of the bar and throw in with your regular wash, it will energize your laundry load. Works Great with Soap Nuts! Clean your shoes or remove the ink of your leather jacket or purse. Melt in Hot water and just spray or rub on carpet surfaces or car seats to get rid of stains and grime. You Know the dirt that builds up on your nylon jacket around the cuffs well Presto! it's gone with the natural stain remover. removes mold from surfaces especially in your fridge.

My son got paint or permanent marker on his school pants and I tried this once and it made the stain lighter and it has been on his pants for a long time. This product is a great addition to our natural washing routine and it is safe for use on cloth diapers and I love that. I would recommend for everyone to try this out I recently even saw it at the counter of my local Once Upon A Child resale store.

Four Reasons Why You Should Plan A Family Vacation

Families require a lot of hard work to stay close and function as a family unit. It's not as easy as it seems in Disney movies. The best way to stay together is to vacation together. Here are many reasons why your family should travel together this year.

Vacations Improve Health

It has been proven by experts that vacations improve health and productivity. By traveling a person can relieve stress, lower blood pressure, and improve his or her disposition. If your children are having behavioral problems then a vacation might be just what the doctor ordered: attention and family bonding make children feel secure and less anxious.

Stop hoarding vacation hours while you work yourself into an early grave. Go ahead and get your vitamin D this season: it's free, and the surf is calling.

 

Families Bond During Travels

Even if your teens barely have time to text you (let alone answer your calls), if you mention a trip to Ireland they are sure to pay attention. Vacations bring a family together. From the hours spent on Aer Lingus crossing the pond to the days spent in Ireland enjoying the fresh air, your family will talk, share experiences, and build memories together.

Don't be surprised if your teen posts a lot of pictures of your vacation on Facebook and Instagram. Teens are most inclined to share family time on social networks when they are doing exciting, fun things like traveling.

Traveling Together Is Cheaper

Your older children might love a trip with their friends' parents to Disney this summer. Maybe your spouse would like to vacation alone to see his family, too. However, when families travel in unison they often get group rates that save a lot of money.

Don't sacrifice savings and bonding for convenience: get the family on a schedule to vacation together. You will be glad you did when you see the financial and emotional benefits.

Trips Provide Educational Benefits

Younger children aren't getting the education that they deserve these days. Schools require supplemental education from parents. An easy way to do that is to take your children to educational sites like Mount Rushmore, museums, or historical sites such as the Civil War reenactment. By experiencing educational vacations your kids can get a break from school, but keep on learning. Here are a few great options for parents:

• Visit a Reservation: Let your kids learn about Native American traditions and culture first-hand on a reservation.
• Scuba Dive: Teach children about the local fish habitat before diving, and then review it after they have seen the fish up close.
• Volunteer Excursion: Teach kids about the world by volunteering this vacation to support others in a foreign country.

Consider giving your children a quiz about their experiences. Make it fun and easy, but challenge them to remember their educational vacation.

Taking time away from work and extracurricular activities like sports is important to every member of your family. Families need time to bond and grow together. By traveling together at least once a year you will feel closer, less anxious, and happier about life's outlook.
