Green Works Products Review

          
             As a mom of three little kids, I strive everyday to keep things clean and free of germs. And if you are a mom, you know how much that is!
         
             It's an everyday goal.

            I try to be environment concious and choose products that are safe for my family and our planet.

            When it comes to cleaning - I found it! It's Green Works products line.

            They are formulated by using plant-based and mineral-based biodegradable ingredients, like citric acid and wood fibers. That means they won't produce harsh fumes or leave a residue. The packaging can be recycled.





           The wipes are safe on most-wood surfaces, including acrylic, fiberglass and vinyl.



  The toilet bowl cleaner cuts through rust, hard water and stubborn mineral deposits. Again, it doesn't produce harsh fumes.

              The all-purpose cleaner is probably my favorite in the line. It's really powerful for the lack of harsh ingredients. It cuts through grease with ease, you can use it from cooktop to countertops, on appliances, stainless steel, sealed granite, chrome, sinks and toilets.
             I used it all over the house and even in my Hubby's car.


I received the Green Works products as a Member of Big Tent community. I was in no way compensated for this review. All opinions are 100% mine.

Time4Learning - the review

            If you are a parent who homeschools or does a lot of afterschool activities with your child / children, you will like the Time4Learning program. It is an online home education program for homeschool, afterschool and summer study, for grades Pre-K through 8th.  As a parent , you can track your child's progress and be easily involved in their activities. This program will work for a lot of families, as it is very flexible and gives your child the ability to learn in a comfort of their own home. It is a web based program, so no need to download the software or buy CD's. It is student-paced, which to me is very important.        
   
         Recently, I had a chance to try it for 30 days. I signed up my 5 year-old daughter for a 1st grade level and my 2 year-old daughter for a kindergarten level.

               Audrey, the oldest one, had lots of fun with science. She can count to 100 and more, she knows her alphabet and sounds of the letters, so the language and math part wasn't really challenging her. But she loved to learn about animals, weather and time.

               Vivienne, our 2 year-old, liked the characters, liked singing songs with them and repeat the nursery rhymes, so the language part was the most fun for her. She can count to 12 and knows the alphabet, but science was a little to advanced for her.

               I signed them both up for levels higher than their age groups indicate. Because they learn a lot at home, I wanted to see on what level they really are. I realize that 30 days is not enough to do every activity, but we focused on those subjects that were the most interesting to us.

              The program has a room for improvement, but overall I was very pleased with it. I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for an online education program for their children.
