Water Bottles Need to be Clean to be Safe: How to Clean Your Water Bottle

Tuesday, March 9th, 2010

You are doing the right thing for the planet by filling up at home and carrying a reusable water bottle and you’ve chosen a safe, non-toxic bottle-but if it’s not kept clean then it may not be healthy.

Whether your drink bottle is a stainless steel bottle, SIGG bottle or a BPA free plastic water bottle, it is important to stop mould and other deposits forming in the bottle.

Wash your drink bottles with warm, soapy water at the end of every day and let the bottle air dry upside down with the top off every day where possible.

Should any mineral deposits or lime scale form inside, fill your clean water bottle with Distilled White Vinegar and let it soak for 24 hours. Then rinse with warm water mixed with one tablespoon of bicarbonate of soda (baking soda), rinse out and let dry. Spots inside the bottle that look like “corrosion” are most likely a mineral deposit.

Fill your bottle with filtered water wherever possible. It tastes so much better, but also because water contains different minerals in every area this may affect what happens inside your bottle.

Thursday, March 4th, 2010

Do you remember as a small child, watching The Little Mermaid or even Beauty and the Beast? As enchanting as these childhood movies were and still are, they had some familiarities.

Both of the main characters in these movies meet their very own personal prince charming. Now you know how the plots play out, they fall into forbidden love of sorts, and get married. Now since there are weddings in these two films, how come we never see any bridal shower favors or wedding shower favors? Were these two strikingly and breathtakingly beautiful princesses deprived of a bridal shower? It seems as though old Walt Disney over looked a couple of things while putting these films together.

Preparing The Move To the Nursery Early

Thursday, March 4th, 2010

When you bring your new baby home, you probably will have the urge to have him close to you all the time, especially when you (attempt to!) go to rest for the night. It feels right to have a cot or cradle in your bed room in the beginning, as it will lessen the distance you’ve to walk to handle nighttime feedings.

You are able to attempt shifting the baby into his nursery for sleeps right from the outset, to attempt to reduce any stress or anxiousness by moving him into a new space with brand new smells and sights when he is a little older. Relax with him or her in a rocker or glider and rock him to sleep at first, then switch him into his cot.

Later on, you can put him in his cot and if he’s fussy or cannot get to sleep, try sitting down near the crib for a few evenings till he falls asleep. Then move the chair further away for another week or so. Finally, position the chair close to the entry, so the child gets used to falling asleep without being right next to you.
