    What did you learn by making your own cleaning products? What is the biggest difference in making vs buying?

    The ingredients I have came in plastic bottles still, but at least buying in bulk like this means fewer smaller bottles are being used. If only glass bottles were less expensive.

    I can't believe it's already the end of the month! It's so neat to watch everyone's contributions add up. Can't wait to see the final tallies!

  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Family
    Does your child play differently with natural or repurposed toys than with other toys? If so, how?

    I don't have a kid, but when I purchase for gifts I try to find items that are natural colored and made of natural products.
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Food
    Do an inventory of your kitchen to see how many single-use plastics you've used in the past. What are some resuable alternatives to these commonly used products? What would your impact be if you switched all the single-use products from your inventory to reusable?

    I actually don't use a lot of single use plastics.  I try to buy in bulk or items that come in paper bags/boxes.

    How can you think outside the box (or bag!) when it comes to disposables?

    I checked with my local Sprouts to see if I can take my jars in so I don't have to use disposible bags.

    I like finding what kind of cleaners I can make so I don't have to use bleach.

    Personal Care
    How can you advocate for the importance of reducing packaging to the rest of your friends, family and larger community?

    Leading by example.  Take your reuseable bags with you whenever you shop.
