Let The Kids Play…Stains Aren’t A Threat Anymore

This post brought to you by Triad Retail Media. All opinions are 100% mine. Grrrr, stains! My son is at an age where he goes through clothes like crazy, because few foods make it into his mouth without taking a partial detour onto his clothes first. At first I would toss stained clothing away, but […]

  • My kids are always bringing tons of stains home in their clothes. Shout is one of my favorite stain removers!

  • I love my Shout!! Just used it today in fact!

  • Donna

    I shudder to think how horrible my son’s clothes would be without Shout.

  • Whoa. That worked really great, and I also prefer a trigger to a stick. Kids will give those stain removers the biggest tests, won’t they?

  • Jenn

    Sounds like a must-have for moms!

  • I don’t know what I’d do without Shout!

  • I hate stains. I’ll have to try this to see if it works on grass stains. I swear, my son falls down more than any other kid I know.

  • My mom swears my Shout! I’ve used it and was happy with the results. The shirt came out wonderful!

  • We HAVE to keep shout in our home, with the kids in soccer and baseball we fight grass and clay on a daily basis.

  • We definitely need stain help here! Thanks!

  • Shout is a lifesaver here!! With eight children we always have stains!

    LOVE. Love. LOVE! Shout!!!

  • I love how well it worked! I’ll have to add this to my stain fighting tool kit!

  • I’m impressed! We definitely need this product in our house. I’m adding it to our grocery list right now.

  • I keep a bottle of Shout at hand for all laundry. With a 3yo and a 4yo, I would have to buy all new wardrobes were it not for stain fighters!

  • I love shout, and it works great for my boys soccer uniforms as well as my daughters clothes, she loves to get dirty LOL

  • I love Shout! I got to try it out too and it took hamburger grease out of my yellow shirt. 🙂

  • I use shout stain removal (but a different version — I think it is the extra strength one); I ADORE it … it will get the craziest stains out. Definitely a must when you have little kids!

  • My daughter is the same way and her clothes are forever getting stained – food, grass, dirt, everything. I have high hopes this product will remove all of those stains and keep her clothes looking like new.

  • I love Shout. It seems that I’m always spilling something in my clothes so I keep some on hand.

Arm & Hammer Toothpaste #SwitchAndSave Challenge

I’m a bit fanatical when it comes to my teeth. Anyone who is a regular reader knows this about me, and honestly, I think putting time and effort into maintaining a strong set of healthy teeth is an investment that will pay off for a lifetime. My son is now two, and it isn’t so […]

Why God Made Moms (According To Second Graders)

A teacher asked, her students answered. Responses to some very important questions, through the eyes of a group of second graders (I’m telling you, kids are SMART): Why did God make mothers? She’s the only one who knows where the scotch tape is. Mainly to clean. To help us get out of there when we […]

    Love this! All of the answers are fun to read! Thanks for sharing!

  • So sweet! I want to send to all the moms I know, and future moms too!

  • I can’t stop laughing!!! I like all the answers but love this one – Moms have magic, they make you feel better without medicine. That magic trick still worked even when I was already 30 years old and with 2 boys of my own. I miss my mom.

Boba Baby Carrier and The Benefits Of Baby Wearing {Give Away}

Babies are the sweetest things, and having them close by is even sweeter. As an active mom, it’s difficult to hold my child all day when I have so much to do, so I was on the search for a great baby carrier that would keep my baby close to me while freeing up my […]

  • Where I live, it is the law that all wheeled sports (tricycle, scooter, bike, skateboard, etc, etc) must have helmets worn from age 1-17.

  • My husband and I always teach our kids about bike safety.

  • The bubble blowing whistles would be fun for me too! I’m glad you mentioned that the bike helmets should be buckled under the chin, by the way. 🙂

  • Okay the bubble blowing whistles would be a favorite with us.

  • Great tips! 🙂

  • My 4 yr old son watches Chuggington during the day. He goes in spurts. He’ll watch it all month then switch to something else then watch it all month again he’s so fickle

  • When sweet baby is old enough for a bike we’ll go to parks. Can’t wait 🙂

  • We are getting my daughter her first bike for her birthday … Those rules will be good to go over with her.
