Natural Moms Podcast #97
September 8, 2008
My guest this week is Helen Coronato, author of Eco-Friendly Families: Guide your family to greener living, with activities that engage and inspire from toddlers to teens
Helen is sharing eco-friendly back to school tips. Instead of shopping until you drop, there are creative ways to get the supplies you need. For example, Helen suggests hosting a Swap Meet with other parents.
She also talks about taking inventory of what you already own and reusing things you have. Can you spruce up your scissors with a little foil? What about reusing pencil shavings?
Helen mentioned ReusableBags.com on the show as a source of easy to carry reusable bags that fit neatly inside your purse.
Read my review of Eco Friendly Families here and get more details on what the book has to offer for the entire year. Please leave your comments on this show below.
