Using Wet Ones All Year Long

**I participated in a campaign for Mom Central Consulting on behalf of Wet Ones. I received product samples to facilitate my review and a promotional item as a thank you for participating

Wow, it's hard to believe that May is here and soon Kaelyn will be out of school. Where did the school year go?! Being that this was her first year of school, I look back at it fondly with many memories and firsts. I have learned a lot as a parent with a child in school and will carry those things on to next year.

 

When Kaelyn began school, many people told us that she will bring home all kinds of germs the first year. My kids have always been healthy and I didn't concern myself with it too much. However, the parents who told us this were right. It felt like our family had some sort of flu or cold for many months in a row this past winter, with Kaelyn usually being the first to get it. I got more serious about keeping the germs away, and one way to do this was using our Wet Ones Antibacterial Wipes more frequently and having them with us at all times. 

The thing I like about Wet Ones is that they're a great way to get dirty hands clean, even when you're away from home or soap/water. They're perfect for play dates at the park, picnics...even field trips. Next school year I will definitely continue to send the Wet Ones packs in Kaelyn's backpack so she has them, even when she's not by a sink to wash her hands. When Kaelyn went on a field trip this past winter we were very thankful to have them along with us! 

For those who aren't familiar with Wet Ones Antibacterial Hand Wipes, they are effective alternative to clean hands when soap and water aren't available. They are proven to be just as effective as gel hand sanitizers in killing 99.99% of germs, but they also clean better than hand sanitizer gels, wiping away dirt and messes too! I love that they also don't dry out the skin like alcohol-based sanitizers.  

Wet Ones wipes are portable and be used in pretty much any situation. They come in a variety of convenient sizes and option, making them perfect for families everywhere.There's the 40 count canister, 15 count travel pack and 24 count box of individually wrapped single wipes to choose from. 

There's even something for those with sensitive skin like myself and kids! Pediatrician tested Wet Ones Hand Wipes for Sensitive Skin are gentle and safe enough even for babies. They're hypoallergenic, alcohol and fragrance-free and have an extra mild cleanser and soothing moisturizers to help keep the touchiest skin touchable.

I've also been finding that Wet Ones are perfect for this time of year. With Spring upon us, we have a lot of cleaning to do both inside and out. Thankfully the snowy weather (yes, snow in may!) has kept us inside and catching up on lots of cleaning and organizing that needed to be done. Now that the weather is FINALLY beginning to warm up, we are now headed outside to do our Spring Cleaning as well.  We have landscaping to trim and plant, trampoline and pools to set up, and of course...playing and enjoying the beautiful weather as well!

With this new warmer season, we have lots of reasons to be outdoors. Whether it's cleaning, playing or on the go for sports and spring activities...we have been using our Wet Ones Antibacterial Wipes everywhere we go (and will continue to throughout the season and summer). 

Whether we're playing at the park, having a picnic, out for ice cream, or even getting our weekly groceries...Wet Ones Antibacterial products have been a great way for us to stay healthy and clean our hands to kill germs and bacteria. I know we will continue to use them lots of the coming months and even into the next school year. They're a must-have in our household for sure!
