What to Expect Guide to a Healthy Home

I love Mom Central and the things they are reviewing and asking us very important "mommy bloggers" to review and try out.

Recently, I was sent the What to Expect Guide to a Healthy Home as well as a coupon for a package of Clorox Disinfecting Wipes.

I would not say I am a germaphobe, but I do work in a hospital (I am a finance person, but my office is actually in the hospital) and my kids go to daycare. I know how important it is to wash hands for me at work and for my kids at school. Their school is so psycho about hand washing, Ashley has three sinks in her classroom; one for handwashing after the bathroom, one for handwashing after playing, and one for after eating. She is required to wash her hands as soon as she arrives. I am required to wash my hands when I go into Audrey's room to pick her up.

So when I got this guide, I was excited to read about what I could do in my home. I hate being sick (who doesn't?) and more importantly, I hate it when my kids or even worse, my husband is sick.

Lucky for me, this guide includes keeping a healthy home not just in the flu months, but year round.

But I think this guide is really important as we are almost at Christmas and I am sure most of us are spending time with friends and family in our homes. There are some great tips in this guide such as the all important "no double dipping" rule (do you think it's okay to post that next to the bean dip?) and avoiding touching your nose, mouth or eyes as much as possible, especially if Uncle Frank just sneezed...
