Green Cleaning
August 28th, 2008
Jennifer Lance’s post, “A Little Greener: How to Clean Toys Naturally” on GNMParents offers helpful advice from a mother who has had to clean all sorts things after her kids got a hold of them. Although her techniques are not scientific enough to prove they kill all bacteria and viruses, she has had luck keeping her kids healthy by using the following green cleaning techniques.
- Plastic toys - stick in the top row of the dishwasher
- Woodentoys - either dust them off with a rag or wash them gently in the sink with soap and warm water. Lance uses Ecover Dish washing Liquid.
- Plush toys - use the hand washing gentle cycle on the washing machine
