My son loves to draw with markers.  He has his own little box of art supplies that we keep in the living room and he has recently discovered that markers are much cooler than crayons.  Naturally, this also makes for messier hands when he gets the urge to express his creativity through drawing.

I make a huge deal about hand washing in our home.  I work in a school, so I come in contact with many, many germs on a daily basis.  My son is a student, so he also shares a community space and things like crayons and pencils.  Anytime I tell him to wash his hands at home, it’s usually met with a loud sigh and fussing.  However, he has no problem washing his hands in a restaurant bathroom, particularly because they often have an automatic soap and paper towel dispenser.  He thinks it’s “magic”, how the soap and paper towels come out with a wave of the hand.  He’s often asked me how come we couldn’t have this at home.  Well, now we do!

The LYSOL No-Touch Hand Soap has made me the “coolest mom ever” in our home this past week.  I received a unit to try out, so I unpacked it and set it up in the bathroom.  I then called my son in to test it out for me.  As he held his hand under the dispenser spout, out came the perfectly proportioned dollop of soap.  He was too excited that we had a little of our own “magic” at home. 

The LYSOL No-Touch Hand Soap starter kit comes with the dispenser, a hand soap refill, and 4 AA batteries, which is everything you need to take it out of the package and start using it immediately.  I love the fact that it’s so easy for my son to use and that it’s one less surface he has to touch after washing his hands so they can stay as clean as possible, especially before eating.

I participated in a campaign on behalf of MomCentral Consulting for LYSOL^®.I received product samples to facilitate my review and a promotional item to thank me for participating.

What started out as a simple project of replacing the drip pans on top of the oven turned into cleaning the inside of the oven as well while I was off work during Spring Break a couple of weeks ago.  I tend to get carried away when I throw myself into projects, especially if it involves cleaning or organizing.  Tackling bigger projects such as this can be time consuming.  I definitely had the time that week to do this, but in all honesty, it wasn’t necessarily something I wanted to be doing with my time off. 

Tough Grease Needs A Tough Cleaner

In the 13 years I have been married and taking care of my own home, I’ve always used Easy-Off oven cleaner, the #1 oven cleaner that has 5x more grease-cutting power than the leading all-purpose cleaner.  It’s powerful formula eliminates baked-on grease and food spills, saving me lots of time and elbow grease.  It always gets the job done and definitely makes oven cleaning easier for me.

Clean Your Way

Easy-Off comes in two great formulas that are designed to meet your specific needs:

Heavy-Duty– This formula is for those times when you need to clean quickly.  It    cuts through tough grease in less than five minutes.

Fume Free is safe for self-cleaning ovens and doesn’t emit caustic fumes.

I use the Fume Free formula in our oven.  I simply spray according to directions and let the oven cleaner sit inside for two hours, then wipe clean.  This option uses no heat, doesn’t let off an overwhelming smell in our home, and requires very little effort for such a great clean. 

Life Is Better When The Cleaning’s EASY!

With the weather turning warmer and the Easter holidays just around the corner, the last place anyone wants to be is stuck inside for hours cleaning an oven.  Use Easy-Off for a quick and effective clean and enjoy the time you save doing something you want to do.
